Scientific paper

The NuMI facility at Fermilab will generate an intense beam of neutrinos directed toward Soudan, MN, 735 km away. Components of the planned beam monitoring system will be exposed to fluences of up to 8 x 10^9 charge particles / cm^2 and 6 x 10^10 neutrons / cm^2 in an 8.6 us beam spill. These fluences will be measured by an array of Helium ionization chambers. We tested a pair of chambers with 8 GeV protons at the Fermilab Booster accelerator, and with high intensity neutron sources at the Texas Experimental Nuclear Facility.
