Abstract :
Absolute measurements have been made of the charge transferred from thin, insulated, aluminum plate targets in vacuum by 25 GeV protons. The results are reported for various thicknesses, orientations and bias of the insulated targets. Beam flux measurements were made by means of the 12C(p, pn)11C monitor reaction using polyethylene foils. Applications of these targets to beam intensity and profile measurements at the AGS are discussed.
