Overview
Beam line BL-23 is designed, developed and commissioned as a visible diagnostics beam line in Indus-2 storage ring. Its source point is at 5° port of bending magnet (DP-10) in Indus-2. A water cooled copper mirror at 5.5 m from SR source point acts as a primary pick-off mirror. It intercepts only lower half (visible part) of the dipole light with total horizontal angular acceptance of 5 mrad. The extracted visible light follows reflective and refractive optics, and focused on optical table in the dark room outside the shielding wall of Indus-2. Final measuring point in dark room is at a distance of ~20 m from source point. Instrumentation on optical table includes beam profiler, dual sweep synchroscan streak camera, position sensitive detector PSD, fast photo receiver etc. Visible diagnostics has certain diffraction limitations but, it is convenient to use it optically as non destructive diagnostics tool. V-DBL is used to observe and study longitudinal beam parameters like bunch length, bunch separation, bunch filling pattern, longitudinal beam instability etc.
