We use the High Current Experiment (HCX) to study three mitigation measures: a rough surface to reduce electron emission and gas desorption from ions striking walls near grazing incidence, a suppressor electrode after the magnets to block beam-induced electrons off the end structures from drifting upstream, and clearing electrodes to remove electrons from drift regions between magnets. We find that each technique performs as intended.
