2. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 2 on 25 March, the MICE collaboration was invited to present a proposal to RAL, with the help of RAL since then RAL nominated a project engineer (Iouri Ivanichenkov) questions: What will MICE be? Who will do what? Who will pay what? When can/should this be done? MICE found a home! what will be the logo?

3. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 3 MICE Video Conferences and collaboration meetings MUCOOL/MICE Collaboration meeting 22-26 October @Berkeley Finalize who does what and cost estimates Schedule remaining open questions (decision tree) at that time the input to the proposal should be defined and proposal drafting underway. Date of submission: 15 December 2002 Deadline for contributions 15 November 2002 dates for SG meeting collaboration board meeting dates for video conference MICE Software workshop? will be decided and proposed by next steering group phone meeting (Friday 19 July 4 pm CEST) comments => alain.blondel@cern.chalain.blondel@cern.ch

4. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 4 Time lines and cost estimates will be collected by Mike Zisman and Rob Edgecock (cc: A.B. -> steering group) Technical specifications and service needs will be collected by Iouri Ivaniouchenkov and Ed Black (cc: AB and Rob Edgecock)

5. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 5 from MICE LOI : 2002 The schedule of activities can be envisaged as follows, assuming all milestones are passed successfully. 2002: Preparation of proposal and fund raising Integrated simulation of experiment including beam, detectors and cooling cells Evaluation of possible sources of systematic errors Investigation of low equilibrium emittance lattice and of the compatibility with ring coolers Continuous comparison of the 200 MHz and 88 MHz scenarios Test of detectors in X ray environment (already underway) and choice of tracking devices Operation of 88 MHz cavity at CERN and of the test facilities at Fermilab Continued development of liquid hydrogen absorbers Development of alternative schemes for absorbers Competitive design and cost estimates for the solenoids Constitution of a collaboration structure and more detailed distribution of tasks and financial responsibilities Evaluation with the host laboratory of the requirements on space, facilities, safety and radiation issues, and infrastructure Submission of proposal in the course of 2002.

6. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 6 PRIORITIES 1.Find a home for the experiment 2.Understand the X ray issue and quantify it in terms of particle detector performance 2.’ Develop reconstruction with noise and efficiencies 3.

Crisis… see Hanke’s talk Some pending questions..> no, but define set of criteria, actions and decision points

7. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 7 pending questions 1.what is the beam size in the cavities (to minimize Be foils dimensions) 2.thickness of liq. H2 absorbers 3.distance between spectrometer solenoid and cooling cell. 4.… … …

10. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 10. Observed dark currents in 800MHz cavity in lab G. The cavity could not be run at a gradient higher than 5 MV/m without emitting one electron or more within a time window of 20 ns. (i.e. 10 -8 mA) new curves indicate 10 MV/m Q. Is this the right figure of merit? with 200 MHz? Better probably: observed noise rate in actual detector near the cavity.

11. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 11.43 X 4 cells = 1.7 m  11.5 MV for 1X 4 = 6.70 MV/m 16 MV for 2X4 = 4.65 MV/m 16 MV for 1X4 = 9.3 MV/m => 6.70 MV/m => 4.65 MV/m

GOAL: The long-term goal is to have a Conceptual Design Report for a Neutrino Factory Complex by the time of JHF and LHC start-up, so that, by that date, this would be a valid option for the future of HEP (European Muon Coordination and Oversight Group, April 2002) =2007 MICE must have measured cooling end 2006

23. International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE 23 Conclusions & discussion MICE has already shown to be a beneficial approach: RF emissions cost reductions safety windows.. etc.. There will be undoubtedly many other annoying discoveries, ….. followed by clever inventions MICE is essential to convince ourselves – and others – that we know how to build realistic cooling channels Getting a first measurement of cooling before LHC start-up should be feasible but requires good organization and priorities. Funding needs to be found also from outside MC. RAL is inviting us… we must take our chance.
