Abstract :
Azimuthal arrays of B-dot loops are often used to measure the time-resolved beam centroid position of a pulsed, intense electron beam propagating in a metallic tube. This paper describes the designing principle, parameters and calibration of a B-dot. The preliminary experimental results in a liner induction accelerator are given.
