contents When polarized electron bunches are injected and circulated in a high-energy storage ring, the polarization of the bunches relaxes to the asymptotic value of the radiative polarization, caused by the synchrotron radiation. Hence the bunches must be refreshed periodically, to maintain a predetermined time-averaged value of the bunch polarization. In general, the refresh rates of the "up" and "down" polarization bunches are different. We suggest an alternative policy. We point out that the total bunch refresh rate is almost independent of the asymptotic level of the radiative polarization. We also note that the true goal of so-called "spin matching" is to maximize the buildup time constant (not the asymptotic level) of the radiative polarization. We suggest a scheme to equalize the refresh rates of the "up" and "down" polarization bunches, which may be (i) helpful for accelerator operations, and also (ii) reduce systematic errors in HEP experiments.
