An integrating current transformer for fast extraction from the HIRFL-CSR main ring

For any experiment that uses the beam of an accelerator, monitoring the beam intensity is always an important concern. It is particularly useful if one can continuously measure the beam current without disturbing the beam. We report here on test experiments for an Integrating Current Transformer （ICT） used to measure fast extraction beams from the HIRFL-CSR main ring （CSRm）. The laboratory tests and beam intensity measurement results are presented in this paper. The influence of the kicker noise is also analyzed.
