Abstract: The FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) accelerator facility presently under construction at GSIwill supply a wide range of beam intensities for physicsexperiments. Design beam intensities range from 2.5×1013protons/cycle to be delivered to the pBar-target andseparator for production of antiprotons, to beams of e.g.109 ions/s in the case of slowly extracted beams. Thelarge intensity range demands for dedicated beam currentmonitors for precise, non-destructive beam intensitymeasurements in the synchrotrons, transport lines andstorage rings of the FAIR facility. This report describesGSI developments of purpose-built beam currentmonitors for the SIS100 synchrotron and high-energybeam transport lines (HEBT) of FAIR. Prototypemeasurements with a SQUID-based Cryogenic CurrentComparator and a resonant beam charge transformer arepresented, and possibilities for further upgrades arediscussed.
