Abstract CLARA (Compact Linear Accelerator for Research and Applications) is a proposed 250 MeV, 100-400 nm FEL test facility at Daresbury Laboratory [1]. The purpose of CLARA is to test and validate new FEL schemes in areas such as ultra-short pulse generation, temporal coherence and pulse-tailoring. Some of the schemes that can be tested at CLARA depend on a manipulation of the electron beam properties with characteristic scales shorter than the electron beam. In this article we describe the electron beam diagnostics required to carry on these experiments and simulations of FEL pulse and electron beam measurements.
