contents A radially-coupled coaxial fast Faraday cup design was presented in [1] for high-intensity non-relativistic proton beams. In this work, we discuss a modification of that design in the context of a relatively lower intensity ion beam for longitudinal charge profile measurements. Particle-in-cell and time domain electromagnetic simulations of the new design with a focus on avoiding field dilution while generating enough signal for relatively lower intensity ion beams at the upcoming High Current Injector Programme at IUAC, New Delhi [2,3] is discussed. Profile distortions from secondary electron emission are estimated and strategies to suppress them are discussed.
