A multi-element segmented concentric Faraday collector has been developed for measuring the time evolution of the beam half-current radius (a1/2) of an intense relativistic electron beam. Each collector segment measures the total current within its radius. The data analysis procedure fits the data from all five segments at a given time to a prescribed beam profile and calculates a1/2 from the parameters of the fitted curves. The effect of beam centroid offsets on the data analysis was investigated numerically. Beam centroid offsets as large as half the beam radius produce only a 10% error in the experimental measurement of a1/2. The use of a thin graphite overlayer followed by range-thick stainless steel reduces scattering from one collector element to the next. The instrument has been used extensively on the SuperIBEX relativistic electron beam accelerator for measurement of the half-current radius as a function of time. Radius variations in excess of 4:1 have been measured over the duration of the beam pulse for beams with 5-MeV energy, 20-kA peak current and 1-cm final half-current radii.
