Zusammenfassung:A monitor and integrator for use with a betatron are described. Both instruments are based on scintillation type detectors, using 931‐A photomultipliers. The monitor presents the filtered output current of the photomultiplier directly on a microammeter. The integrator charges a capacitor with the output of the photomultiplier, fires a thyratron at a preset voltage level, then recycles. Difficulties in eliminating leakage currents and obtaining a linear response in the integrator are described.
