Abstract
A two-dimensional laser-wire scanner capable of measuring the transverse charge profiles of an electron (or positron) bunch has been constructed at the PETRA accelerator in DESY. The development of the system is explained in this paper, along with descriptions of its photon detector and laser system. Results of transverse profile scans are presented for both horizontal and vertical directions. The measurement error is 1.3% from a multi-scan measurement in the vertical direction, where single scans can be performed in less than 50 s. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
