  The diagnostics of beam halo as well as beam core are very important for the regulation of the beam collimator. We have developed a monitor to observe two-dimensional beam profile with a large dynamic range. The monitor has been installed in 122m downstream from the beam collimator in 3-50 BT in the J-PARC. For measuring the beam core and the halo alternatively, the monitor has three kinds of screens. The first one is titanium foil OTR screen to measure a beam core, the second one is aluminum foil OTR screen having a hole (50 mm diameter) in the center, and the last one is a pair of alumina fluorescent screen with a separation of 80 mm in horizontal to observe the beam halo in surroundings. We designed an optical system based on the Offner optics for the observation of fluorescence and OTR lights. This optical system has an entrance aperture of 300 mm and it can cover the large opening angle (± 13.5 degree) of the OTR from 3GeV protons. A CID camera with an image intensifier (II) was use to observe the profile. We have succeeded to observe a profile of beam halo to 10-6 order to the peak of beam core by using proton beams of 9.6 x 1012 protons/pulse by this multi-screen scheme.

  We have developed an accurate and efficient analysis method with a multi-conductor transmission line model.  This method combines the two-dimensional electrostatic analysis including beams in the transverse plane and the transmission line analysis in the longitudinal direction.  The loads are also included in the boundary condition of the transmission line analysis.  Calculation of 2D electrostatic fields can be easily performed with the boundary element method. Taking low frequency limit of the formula, we have obtained an accurate expectation of the BPMs of 200 mm diameter at the 3-50 Beam Transport Line in J-PARC.

In order to measure a beam profile with a wide dynamic range covering the halo region around the core region of intense proton beams, a non-destructive beam profile monitor using a sheeted jet beam of nitrogen molecules as a target has been developed for the beam of the J-PARC main ring (MR)*,**. Two-dimensional detection of the beam core will be performed using de-excitation light of the nitrogen molecule. On the other hand, beam halo will be detected using ionized electrons. In the detection of the electrons, aμchannel plate (MCP) will be used for charge multiplication. To achieve a sensitivity of about 10-6, a phosphor screen will be employed for the anode of the MCP, and its light will be detected by photo-multiplier arrays for position resolving. Thus the beam core and halo will be detected simultaneously in this scheme. In this paper summaries of recent progress on the development are discussed as below: 1) the detection efficiency and accuracy in the measurement of the halo region, 2) simulation and experiment results of the high intensity jet beam of 5x10-4 Pa equivalent or more, 3) the specific design of the detector head in the collision point for J-PARC MR.
