    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?
