For these beams,two-dimensional beam profiles;les were successfully measured within the time (100 ns)of the bunch separation.This article describes both the technical and physical aspects of the monitor together with some results.}, pages = {289--300}, title = {Oxygen gas-sheet beam profile monitor for the synchrotron and storage ring}, volume = {527}, year = {2004} }
