Hi Michael, would be good if you can post your analysis meesages to the UCL T-474 analysis elog at
https://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/elog//T-474/ (you can register there for an account).
I still have trouble reading your figures -- can you make pdfs of them perhaps?  mike

I took another look, and there is a sign change in the mean value of the middle bpm... net effect is that the middle bpm actually shows a drift of
~825 nm, not just 25nm.

Here's a slightly easier-to-read plot of the positions vs event number.

Hi, need to compare bpm data on this run and make sure bpm calibrations are 
well known so don't get confused by beam trajectory drifts and scale errors. 
T474 log entries 38 and 42 compare zygo and interferometer on run 1141; a 
similar drift of ~300nm on x3-x4 is seen and there is some correlation noted 
with the interferometer.  The beam data will be able to tell us whether the 
drifts measured by the interferometer are meaningful or whether the 
interferometer measurements have their own drift systematics.  mike

The interferometer did not report any problem with the electronics during 
that run.
I suppose it would be possible for the optical table to move, though since 
all three distances increase it would mean that the center BPM is drifiting 
in the same direction as the table.  It could also be that all three BPMs 
shrunk equally in both directions, with the center BPM drifting.  Do you see 
the effects of this in the center BPM?  If not, since this drift would be at 
about the same scale as the vibrations seen in the middle BPM, could the 
vibrations be "washing out" the drift?
