Method for reducing x-ray background signals from insertion device x-ray beam position monitors

A method is described that provides a solution to the long-standing problem of stray radiation-induced signals on photoemission-based x-ray beam position monitors (BPMs) located on insertion device x-ray beam lines. The method involves the introduction of a chicane into the accelerator lattice that...
