Polarisation analysis of synchrotron THz radiation was carried out with a standard stretched polyethylene polariser and revealed that the linearly polarised (horizontal) component contributes up to 22 +/- 5% to the circular polarised synchrotron emission extracted by a gold-coated mirror with a horizontal slit inserted near a bending magnet edge. Comparison with theoretical predictions shows a qualitative match with dominance of the edge radiation. Grid polarisers 3D-printed out of commercial acrilic resin were tested for the polariser function and showed spectral regions where the dichroic ratio DR > 1 and < 1 implying importance of molecular and/or stress induced anisotropy. Metal-coated 3D-printed THz optical elements can find a range of applications in intensity and polarisation control of THz beams.

A triple-GEM detector with two-dimensional readout is developed. The detector provides high position resolution for powder diffraction experiments at synchrotron radiation. Spatial resolution of the detector is measured in the lab using a 55Fe X-ray source. A resolution of about 110 um FWHM is achieved. The energy resolution is better than 27% for 5.9 keV X-rays. The detectors validity under illumination of photons in particular energy range is verified using a Cu X-ray tube. Imaging of the head of a wire stripper with X-ray tube demonstrates its imaging ability. A diffraction imaging experiment using the sample of powder SiO2 is successfully carried out at 1W2B laboratory of Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility (BSRF). Different diffraction rings are clearly seen under various X-ray energies.
We describe the construction and operation of an x-ray beam size monitor (xBSM), a device measuring $e^+$ and $e^-$ beam sizes in the CESR-TA storage ring using synchrotron radiation. The device can measure vertical beam sizes of $10-100~mu$m on a tu rn-by-turn, bunch-by-bunch basis at $e^pm$ beam energies of $sim2~$GeV. At such beam energies the xBSM images x-rays of $epsilonapprox$1-10$~$keV ($lambdaapprox 0.1-1$ nm) that emerge from a hard-bend magnet through a single- or multiple-slit (coded aperture) optical element onto an array of 32 InGaAs photodiodes with 50$~mu$m pitch. Beamlines and detectors are entirely in-vacuum, enabling single-shot beam size measurement down to below 0.1$~$mA ($2.5times10^9$ particles) per bunch and inter-bunch spacing of as little as 4$~$ns. At $E_{rm b}=2.1 $GeV, systematic precision of $sim 1~mu$m is achieved for a beam size of $sim12~mu$m; this is expected to scale as $propto 1/sigma_{rm b}$ and $propto 1/E_{rm b}$. Achieving this precision requires comprehensive alignment and calibration of the detector, optical elements, and x-ray beam. Data from the xBSM have been used to extract characteristics of beam oscillations on long and short timescales, and to make detailed studies of low-emittance tuning, intra-beam scattering, electron cloud effects, and multi-bunch instabilities.
We present a method for 3D sub-nanometer displacement measurement using a set of differential optical shadow sensor. It is based on using pairs of collimated beams on opposite sides of an object that are partially blocked by it. Applied to a sphere, our 3-axis sensor module consists of 8 parallel beam-detector sets for redundancy. The sphere blocks half of each beam power in the nominal centered position, and any displacement can be measured by the differential optical power changes amongst the pairs of detectors. We have experimentally demonstrated a displacement sensitivity of 0.87 nm/rtHz at 1 Hz and 0.39 nm/rtHz at 10 Hz. We describe the application of the module to the inertial sensors of a drag-free satellite, which can potentially be used for navigation, geodesy and fundamental science experiments as well as ground based applications.

This article includes the description of the geometric parameter gage device prototype for synchrotron radiation of HERA collider (DESY). The system construction which capable to measure photo current, caused by such a radiation in a refractory metal , described here. The system component parts are: measuring heads and photo current measuring electronics designed by IHEP, stepper motor by Vacuum Generators with HEDS-550X encoder by Hewlett Packard, PCI-STEP-4CX 4-Axis Closed Loop Step controller by National Instruments. The device is controlled by means of Microsoft Visual Basic program using Value Motion Windows Libraries. The device prototype was tested in the beam of the DORIS storage ring.
We describe the angular sensing and control of the 4 km detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO). The culmination of first generation LIGO detectors, Enhanced LIGO operated between 2009 and 2010 with about 40 kW of laser power in the arm cavities. In this regime, radiation pressure effects are significant and induce instabilities in the angular opto-mechanical transfer functions. Here we present and motivate the angular sensing and control (ASC) design in this extreme case and present the results of its implementation in Enhanced LIGO. Highlights of the ASC performance are: successful control of opto-mechanical torsional modes, relative mirror motions of 1x10^{-7} rad rms, and limited impact on in-band strain sensitivity.
