Embodiments of systems, devices, and methods relate to fast beam position monitoring for detecting beam misalignment in a beam line. In an example, a fast beam position monitor includes a plurality of electrodes extending into an interior of a component of a beam line. The fast beam position monitor is configured to detect a position of a beam passing through the component of the beam line based on beam halo current. Embodiments of systems, devices, and methods further relate to noninvasively monitoring parameters of beams advancing along a beam line. In examples, gas is puffed into a pumping chamber along a beam line. One or more beam parameters are measured from fluorescence resulting from collisions of energetic beam particulates of a beam advancing through the beam line.
A beam position monitor positioned along a beam system configured for boron neutron capture therapy, the beam system comprising an ion source, an accelerator, and a target, the beam position monitor comprising a plurality of electrodes extending into an interior of a component of a beam line of the beam system, wherein the beam position monitor is configured to detect a position of a beam passing through the component of the beam line based on halo current of the beam, wherein each electrode of the plurality of electrodes is configured to collect current measurements based on exposure of the electrode to the halo current of the beam, wherein each electrode of the plurality of electrodes has an elongate shape and a long axis, wherein the long axis extends into the interior of the component in a direction perpendicular to a wall of the beam position monitor at a position where the electrode is coupled with the wall, and wherein the beam position monitor is positioned between the accelerator and the target.
