Abstract
Design and performance of a UHV compatible dual wire beam position mon itor are presented with specific applications to beamline X8C at the N SLS. This device can determine the relative vertical position of the X -ray beam to within +/- 5 mum. At X8C, the wire monitor is used to obs erve the reproducibility of the X-ray beam position after each new ele ctron fill and to watch for instabilities that may arise during stored beam conditions. Data from the NSLS X-ray ring pick-up electrodes are presented to independently assess wire monitor accuracy.
