N2 - Aspects of the beam monitoring techniques used during the Reactor Accelerator Coupled Experiments (RACE) carried out at the University of Texas at Austin Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory will be discussed. In particular two methods will be presented. The first used differential thermal measurement of the target during electron bombardment and subsequent neutron production as an indication of power input to the reactor core. The second method involved the development of a compact instrument that, along with the target acting as a faraday cup, allowed a continuous noninvasive means of determining the relative electron beam position.
