    keyword=Septum Current Adjustment

    The present idea is to tune the septum current such that hole 'A' in the
    figure below is about 4.8mm from the acceptance edge (which is the hole
    spacing).  From the BPM scan done in the referenced post, this hole
    disappears when the beam is shifted between 3-3.5 mm in the appropriate
    direction, suggesting that if the hole is moved an additional 1.6mm, it
    will be appropriately far from the edge.
    
    To effectively move the hole we can change the septum current, and by
    using the relative hole spacing as a guide on the distance scale, we can
    map current change to effective hole position change.  6 mrad in target
    phi is about the spacing between the central hole and hole A, Fig 2. 
    Figs. 3 and 4 are how the central hole peak position changes in target
    phi vs. current, which is nicely linear.  Taking the slopes from the
    figures, I get an increase by 8 A for the left arm and 10 A in the right
    arm corresponds to a shift of 1.6mm.
    
    So, increasing the septum by 9 A should move the holes the additional space.
