A non-destructive beam profile monitor using a sheeted jet beam of nitrogen molecular as a target has been developed for intense ion beams. The pressure of the sheeted molecular beam was 5 x 10-4 Pa at the beam collision point. A light emitted from excited nitrogen by an ion beam collision is measured by a high sensitive camera with a radiation resistant image intensifier. Verification of such a principle was already demonstrated with low-energy ion beams[1]. In this paper, some actual designs for intense beams of the J-PARC MR will be discussed mainly as bellow, intensity upgrade of the jet beam production, configuration of the detection chamber and its apparatus placed beam collision point, and the optical system for the light detection.
