The quality of beam instrumentation is very important in the experiments on accelerator driven systems (ADS) aiming to investigate spatial and energy distribution of neutrons inside and outside the subcritical setups comprising spallation neutron sources irradiated by relativistic beams. An important source of systematic uncertainties of the experimental data is the inaccuracy of determination of the beam parameters such as total intensity of the extracted beam, beam position at the target, fraction of the beam hitting the target and beam shape. This paper reviews the experimental techniques and measurement tools for deuteron beam monitoring used within the “Energy plus Transmutation” collaboration in the ADS experiments at the accelerator complex of Nuclotron (JINR, Russia): - activation technique using Al monitors for measurement of the total intensity of the extracted beam; - solid nuclear track detectors method and activation technique using segmented activation Cu foils for determination of beam profile and position at the target.
