Abstract :
A new method for bunch length measurement has been developed at ELETTRA. It is based on a spectral observation of the synchrotron radiation light pulses. The single pulse spectrum is shaped by means of an optical process which gives the method an increased sensitivity compared to the usual spectral observations. Some simulations have been carried out to check the method in non-ideal conditions. The results of the first measurements are also presented
