Notes:
A Faraday cup has been designed and tested to measure the ion current density in an intense ion beam immersed in a strong magnetic field. The ion flux is charge neutralized by a low-energy codrifting electron beam. The codrifting electrons are deflected from the cup by use of an apertured magnetic plate at the entrance to the cup. Comparison of the integrated Faraday cup traces with the proton flux found from carbon activation measurements show that the ion Faraday cup consistently measured 59%±8% of the protons.
