keyword=Hall C charge asymmetry
I can't remember if this is clearly known or not. The effect
of Hall C on the Hall A beam is seen below. The Hall A IA cell runs steadily
around 2 V when C is on, and when C turns off, feedback
adjusts the IA cell by about 1.6 V (about 320 ppm).
This, despite the fact that the Hall C charge asymmetry was not large
(steady about about 100 ppm during the run, see Figure 2). Why is our charge
asymmetry so sensitive to Hall C beam?
And the second mystery: why did the Hall C auto feedback not work? The Hall C
IA cell was nearly, but not quite, railed; the epics readback was constant at
9.9 for the entire run. Does Hall C feedback shy away from the number 10?
