Abstract
A novel diagnostic method to detect ordering within one-dimensional io n beams in a storage ring is presented. The ions are simultaneously ex cited by a ultrashort pulsed laser (similar or equal to 1 ps) at two d ifferent locations along the beam and fluorescence is detected by a gr oup of four photomultipliers. Correlation in fluorescence signals is a firm indication that the ion beam has an ordered structure.
