Abstract :
Prototype beam diagnostics for the 400 MeV linear accelerator (linac) are being designed and tested. The transition section in particular relies on the existence of excellent diagnostics to identify and correct unexpected features of the beam revealed during commissioning. These new diagnostics include: wire scanners, stripline beam position monitors which fit within the quadrupoles, Tevatron-style resistive wall-current monitors and Feschenko-style bunch length detectors. Several of these devices have been tested with 116 MeV and 200 MeV H/sup -/ beam in the present 200 MeV linac.<>
