At the left, between the pole pieces of the bending magnet, a SEM grid detector. This device measures the transverse beam profile by measuring the secondary emission currents on a grid of wires placed in the path of the beam. On the blue table, a wire scanner. This device measures the horizontal beam profile by sweeping a thin wire rapidly through the beam, while detecting the particles scattered from it. The metal tube with the black tip is the detector, a plastic scintillator, connected to a photo-multiplier that is housed in the cylinder at the bottom end of the tube.
