Abstract :
Analysis of the variation in the saturation of the skew quadrupole (a1) is presented for the 15 m long, 50 mm aperture SSC collider dipole magnet prototypes built at BNL. The variations within a magnet are shown to be correlated with local top-bottom asymmetry in the iron yoke weight. On the other hand, magnet to magnet variations in the saturation of integral skew quadrupole are shown to be correlated with the geometric a1
