Built at CERN by an international collaboration, the CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) aims at demonstrating the feasibility of a high luminosity 3TeV e+-e- collider by the year 2010. One of the main issues to be demonstrated is the generation of a high average current (30A) high frequency (12GHz) bunched beam by means of RF manipulation. At the same time, Free Electron Lasers (FEL) are developed in several places all over the world with the aim of providing high brilliance photon sources. These machines all rely on the production of high peak current electron bunches. The required performances put high demands on the diagnostic equipment and innovative longitudinal monitors have been developed during the past years. This paper gives an overview of the longitudinal instrumentation developed at ELETTRA and CTF3, where a special effort was made in order to implement at the same time non-intercepting devices for online monitoring, and destructive diagnostics which have the advantage of providing more detailed information.

In the CLIC Test Facility 3, the strong coupling between the beam and the accelerating cavities induces transient effects such that the head of the pulse is accelerated twice as much as the rest of the pulse. Three spectrometer lines are installed along the linac with the aim of measuring energy spread versus time with a 20ns resolution. The major difficulty is due to the high power carried by the beam which imposes extreme constraints of thermal and radiation resistances for the detector. This paper presents the design and the performances of a simple and easy-to-maintain device, called segmented dump. In this device, the particles are stopped inside metallic plates and the deposited charge is measured in the same way as in faraday cups. Simulations were carried out with the Monte Carlo code FLUKA in order to evaluate the problems coming from the energy deposition and find ways to prevent or reduce them. The detector resolution has been optimized by choosing the adequate material and thickness for the plates. The overall layout of the monitor is described with a special emphasis on its mechanical assembly. Finally, limitations arising at high beam energies are discussed.
