We are considering a RF cavity with Beryllium disk installed in the middle of the cavity as an ionization cooling element for the muon/pion beam. Specially arranged wedge-type shape of the disk together with nonzero dispersion allows 6D cooling of muon beam. Technical aspects of this system and conceptual design are discussed in this paper also. This type of cooler demonstrates advantages if compared with the RF cavity filled with pressurized gas or with the helical cooler.
Muon accelerators offer an attractive option for a range of future particle physics experiments. They can enable high energy (TeV+) high energy lepton colliders whilst mitigating the difficulty of synchrotron losses, and can provide intense beams of
neutrinos for fundamental physics experiments investigating the physics of flavor. The method of production of muon beams results in high beam emittance which must be reduced for efficient acceleration. Conventional emittance control schemes take too long, given the very short (2.2 microsecond) rest lifetime of the muon. Ionisation cooling offers a much faster approach to reducing particle emittance, and the international MICE collaboration aims to demonstrate this technique for the first time. This paper will present the MICE RF system and its role in the context of the overall experiment.
A six-dimensional muon ionization cooling in a helical magnet channel has been studied. The cooling performance which is analytically evaluated by solving the exact Hamiltonian is reproduced in numerical simulation. One of the key beam elements for t
he helical channel is a dense-hydrogen gas-filled RF cavity which realizes a compact cooling channel. Besides, a beam-induced gas plasma in the cavity can generate a plasma-focusing effect. This will generate extremely small betatron function, which realizes extremely low emittance beam.
It has been observed cite{break} that breakdown in an 805 MHz pill-box cavi ty occurs at much lower gradients as an external axial magnetic field is inc reased. This effect was not observed with on open iris cavity. It is propose d that this effect d
epends on the relative angles of the magnetic and maximu m electric fields: parallel in the pill-box case; at an angle in the open ir is case. If so, using an open iris structure with solenoid coils in the iris es should perform even better. A lattice, using this principle, is presented, for use in 6D cooling for a Muon Collider. Experimental layouts to test th is principle are proposed.
High-brightness muon beams of energy comparable to those produced by state-of-the-art electron, proton and ion accelerators have yet to be realised. Such beams have the potential to carry the search for new phenomena in lepton-antilepton collisions t
o extremely high energy and also to provide uniquely well-characterised neutrino beams. A muon beam may be created through the decay of pions produced in the interaction of a proton beam with a target. To produce a high-brightness beam from such a source requires that the phase space volume occupied by the muons be reduced (cooled). Ionization cooling is the novel technique by which it is proposed to cool the beam. The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment collaboration has constructed a section of an ionization cooling cell and used it to provide the first demonstration of ionization cooling. We present these ground-breaking measurements.
Ionization cooling is the preferred method for producing bright muon beams. This cooling technique requires the operation of normal conducting, radio-frequency (RF) accelerating cavities within the multi-tesla fields of DC solenoid magnets. Under the
se conditions, cavities exhibit increased susceptibility to RF breakdown, which can damage channel components and imposes limits on channel length and transmission efficiency. We present a solution to the problem of breakdown in strong magnetic fields. We report, for the first time, stable high-vacuum, copper cavity operation at gradients above 50 MV/m and in an external magnetic field of three tesla. This eliminates a significant technical risk that has previously been inherent in ionization cooling channel designs.
