Abstract
The results of calibration measurements of the proton beam Cherenkov monitor are presented. A good agreement was obtained between the monitor measurements and the readings of the ionization chamber and the plastic monitor. The Cherenkov monitor does not register photons and electrons with energies below 170 keV, which is important for low-energy background suppression.
