Hello all! My name is Julia, I am an engineering physics student from Canada. My project has been to construct a prototype of a Beam Intensity Monitor for the Beam Instrumentation group. In this talk, I will discuss the challenges and methods that go into the construction and installation of the prototype, as well as the vacuum capability and motorization that makes this prototype unique.

Well, actually… My additional goal with this talk is to encourage you to take a second look at detectors and instrumentation. Beyond just seeing diagrams, we will look at the "behind the scenes" of experiments, using the construction of my Beam Intensity Monitor as an example..
