4 Motivation The goal of MICE is:
Design, build, commission and operate a realistic section of cooling channel Measure its performance in a variety of modes of operation and beam conditions Results to be used to optimize Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider designs. 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

5 Motivation: Neutrino Factory
accelerate and store muons to produce neutrinos High energy are unique among future facilities. Golden channel: long baseline oscillations manifested by wrong sign muons: IDS-NF baseline design 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

6 Motivation Muon Collider
“Fallen off” the curve m accelerator solution fundamental particles cleaner interactions tunable interaction energy mm = 205me such that less synchrotron radiation m lifetime in rest frame is 2.2 ms! Technological challenge, but not impossible!!! Livingston Plot 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

7 Motivation: Muon Accelerator
International R&D efforts to meet the challenges High-power target: 4MW proof of principle MERIT (CERN) Fast muon cooling: MICE (RAL) Fast, large aperture accelerator (FFAG) EMMA (Daresbury) 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet High-power target: 4MW good transmission MERIT (CERN)

8 Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment Motivation MICE is the
MICE is a proof of principle experiment to demonstrate that we can “cool” a beam of muons. 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

9 Motivation Why cool muons? muons are created as tertiary particles
created with large inherent emittance – beam spread in 6D phase space: x, y, z px, py, pz accelerators require particles in tight bunches must “cool” muons – reduce emittance of beam “smaller beam” reduces cost of accelerator “smaller beam” increases luminosity 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

10 Outline Motivation Procedure for cooling muons MICE description
Status and Early Results Future 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

11 Procedure: Ionization Cooling
Muons are created as tertiary particles, and so are created with large inherent emittance: “Cooling” muons refers to reducing the emittance of the muon beam. Due to short muon lifetime, the only viable option is ionization cooling. Must cool AND accelerate rapidly: Loose momentum in pT and pL Restore pL 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

12 Procedure: Ionization Cooling
Strong focussing at absorber yields small b Low Z absorbers yields large X0 cooling heating Cooling is: 1) Energy loss in all dimensions via dE/dx 2) Replace longitudinal momentum with RF 04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet

13 Procedure: Cooling y vs x y vs x y vs x y vs x y' vs x' px vs py
04/07/2018 Pierrick M. Hanlet px vs py

14 MICE Procedure MICE will measure a 10% cooling effect with 1% accuracy => precision measurement create beam of muons identify muons and reject background measure muon emittance “cool” muons in low-Z absorber restore longitudinal momentum re-measure muon emittance identify muons to reject e's from m decay -with trackers -here with hodoscopes 04/07/2018 Pierrick M.
