Gentlemen:
According to one dictionary of Aeronautical  terms:
beta  (electronic measurement) ~ N/A for this  discussion
beta control range (turboprop engine operation):
The range of operation of a turboprop powerplant normally used  for in-flight 
approach and ground handling of the engine and aircraft.   Typically the beta 
mode includes operations from 65% to 95% of the engines rated  RPM.

That's one official description, though not an FAA  one.
