An investigation was made of Cosmotron intensity versus time through the entire time interval from the beginning of injection to the completion of r-f capture. The induction electrode signal was used for the instartaneous measurement of beam intensity. Oscilloscope displays of the signal were photographed and traced. Base lines were filled in on the tracings and the area of the pulses measured with a polar pianimeter. It was found that the relation losses of beam intensity increase with injection intensity (total injected charge), and that most of the losses take place in the time interval between the end of injection and the completion of the first synchrotron oscillation.
