James Brock reconfigured the PRad target with two major modifications.
1.  The orifices in the target cell were reduced from 4 mm to 2 mm diameter.
2.  The orifices between the target chamber and the upstream/downstream 
chambers were moved closer to the target cell.

These had very positive effects, and reduced the measured "background" 
gas inside the target chamber from about 0.9% to about 0.07% of the gas 
contained within the cell.  This is the dominant source of background 
gas in the apparatus.

Please find some slides attached with this information.  The results of 
these recent modifications begin on slide 8.
