6. Integrated sextupoles variation with the current
It is not possible to centre the sextupoles variation simultaneously on both magnets with the same cross section and coil ends.
Shifting a MCBXFB sextupole moves that sextupole in the same direction for MCBXFA.

9. Integrated sextupoles variation with the current
Increasing the outer iron diameter reduces the saturation problems.
The variation of a3 with the current is much lower for the thicker iron case.

11. Conclusions
It is not possible to centre the sextupoles variation simultaneously on both magnets using the same cross section and coil ends.
An increase of the outer iron diameter in MCBXFA reduces the saturation problems, leading to lower sextupoles variation with the current.
Studying a narrower operation range for the magnet would allow to optimize sextupole values on critical operation points.
