As the injector of the new fourth-generation SKIF
synchrotron light source at the BINP SB RAS (Novosibirsk, Russia),
the linear accelerator will provide a 200 MeV electron beam. A
precise measurement of the beam is very important for the control of
the linac and even the entire light source. A set of diagnostic
instruments for tuning the linac and measuring the beam parameters
starting from the electron RF gun to the output of accelerator has
been designed. The instrumentation should cover the dynamic
diagnostic range of 0.6 to 200 MeV and a beam duration from the
initial 100 ps to 3 ps at the output of the accelerator. The set
includes eight fluorescent screens to measure beam transverse size,
two Cherenkov probes and RF-cavity sensors to record beam duration,
a dipole magnetic spectrometer to measure energy and energy spread,
a Faraday cup (FC) and fast current transformers (FCTs) to measure
beam charge current, and beam position monitors (BPMs) to check the
beam position. This paper aims to give an overview of the beam
instrumentation and briefly describes the design and parameters of
each diagnostic system. The results of numerical and dynamics
simulations of some of the instruments are briefed. Possible
scenarios of linac tuning are discussed.
