The injection of beam into the PEP-II B-Factory, especially into the High Energy Ring (HER) has some challenges. A high background level in the BaBar Detector has so far inhibited us from trickling charge into the HER similar to the Low Energy Ring (LER). Analyzing the injection system has revealed many issues which could be improved. The injection bump between two kickers was not closed, mainly because the phase advance wasn't exactly 180 degrees and the two kicker strengths were not balanced. Additionally we found reflections which kick the stored beam after the main kick and cause the average luminosity to drop about 3% for a 10 Hz injection rate. The strength of the overall kick is nearly twice as high than the design, indicating a much bigger effective septum thickness. Compared with single beam the background is worse when the HER beam is colliding with the LER beam. This hints that the beam-beam force and the observed vertical blow-up in the HER pushes the beam and especially the injected beam further out to the edge of the dynamic aperture or beyond.

PEP-II is an e+e- B-Factory Collider located at SLAC operating at the Upsilon 4S resonance. PEP-II has delivered, over the past four years, an integrated luminosity to the BaBar detector of over 175 fb-1 and has reached a luminosity over 7.4x1033/cm2/s. Steady progress is being made in reaching higher luminosity. The goal over the next few years is to reach a luminosity of at least 2x1034/cm2/s. The accelerator physics issues being addressed in PEP-II to reach this goal include the electron cloud instability, beam-beam effects, parasitic beam-beam effects, trickle injection, high RF beam loading, lower beta y*, interaction region operation, and coupling control.

The SLAC Control program has an automatic phase measuring system whereby the beta functions of the two storage rings are measured. This facility has recently been extended to measure coupling between the horizontal and vertical motion and to fit the measured values to their modes of propagation. This facility aids the diagnosis and correction of coupling and focusing errors.
