Description | Developed the design of the cooling channel for the Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and showed that ionization cooling is a viable accelerator physics technique to reduce the phase space of muons for future accelerators. First demonstration of ionisation cooling was shown and published in Nature |
Exploitation Route | Ionization cooling is essential if beams of the requisite intensity and quality are to be provided for the Neutrino Factory and the Muon Collider. The technique can also be used to enhance substantially the sensitivity of experiments seeking to discover charged lepton-flavour violation, such as the Mu2e experiment. The short muon lifetime makes traditional cooling techniques inappropriate. Ionization cooling, in which muons lose energy in low-Z absorbers and their longitudinal momentum is restored by re-accelerating the muons in a series of RF cavities, is the only viable alternative. Cooling is most efficient when the absorbers and the RF cavities are immersed in high-focusing magnetic fields. The collaboration built, commissioned and operated a section of an ionization-cooling channel, with strong-focusing magnetic fields. MICE is the only experiment in the world performing the measurement of ionization cooling. The demonstration of ionization cooling has already been presented at a number of international conferences by MICE collaborators, and will be published in a high-profile journal. The experiment will pave the way for stored muon beams to become a new technique for particle physics. This breakthrough would change the field fundamentally, making it possible to search for leptonic-CP violation with exquisite sensitivity at the Neutrino Factory, to study lepton-antilepton annihilation energies in excess of 1 TeV at the Muon Collider and, potentially, allow charged lepton-flavour- violation searches with sensitivities corresponding to muon-electron conversion probabilities of better than 10^{-19}. |
