Lavrischeff, J T

A system is described that uses the east induction electrode in the Bevatron to provide beam-amplitude signals for specialized monitoring and for primary calibration of other beam-monitoring equipment. A system is also described that uses the south induction electrodes to provide beam-position signals for tracking, and beam-amplitude signals for intensity control and general distribution to experimenters associated with the Bevatron and (by means of the telemetering radio link) to those in other areas. A brief description is given, for each system, of inductionelectrode signals, signal-amplifying, - detecting, and -isolatlng equipment, calibration equipment, signal distribution, control features, a meter circuit reading directly in protons per pulse, and various recording facillties. The systems described are stable and self- calibrating, and are intended to provide the facilities indicated with a minimum of maintenance and operational difficulty. (auth)
