Abstract

A dual-axis streak camera, Hamamatsu model C5680, has been installed on the Advanced Light Source photon-diagnostics beam-line to investigate electron-beam parameters. During its commissioning process, the camera has been used to measure single-bunch length vs. current, relative bunch charge in adjacent RF buckets, and bunch-phase stability. In this paper we describe the visible-light branch of the diagnostics beam-line, the streak-camera installation, and the timing electronics. We show graphical results of beam measurements taken during a variety of accelerator conditions
