[Volker Crede]

Hi Eugene,

This is an interesting thought about the hydrogen contamination, indeed. Perhaps you hit the nail on the head ;-)

If would do the same in g9b it would be too far from the main target so we mounted it inside the magnet, but we still had to have endcap which is a thin aluminized foil. And you see it. It g9a it is sitting at the same place as carbon.
