Over the course of the CesrTA program at Cornell, over 30 Retarding Field Analyzers (RFAs) have been installed in the CESR storage ring. These devices, which measure the local electron cloud density and energy distribution, have been deployed in drift, dipole, quadrupole, and wiggler field regions. They can be used to evaluate the efficacy of cloud mitigation techniques in each magnetic field element. Techniques investigated so far include different beam pipe coatings, grooves, and clearing electrodes. This talk will provide an overview of the electron cloud mitigation program at CESR, give a preliminary evaluation of the effectiveness of various mitigation techniques, and discuss methods used to obtain quantitative information about vacuum chamber properties via simulation.

A great deal of Retarding Field Analyzer (RFA) data has been taken as part of the CesrTA program at Cornell. Obtaining a quantitative understanding of this data requires use of cloud simulation programs, as well as a detailed model of the RFA itself. In some cases the RFA can be modeled by postprocessing the output of a simulation codes, and one can obtain best fit values for important simulation parameters using a systematic method to improve agreement between data and simulation. In other cases, in particular in high magnetic field regions, the presence of the RFA can have an effect on the cloud, and one needs to include a model of the RFA in the simulation program itself.
