Ionization Cooling for a Neutrino Factory
Abstract
Ionization Cooling reduces the size and divergence of a muon beam using
material targets, in which the muon beam isotropically loses momentum, and
RF acceleration, where only logitudinal momentum is replaced. Solenoidal
magnetic fields are used to transport and focus the muon beam. Priciples
of Ionization Cooling Channels for a Neutrino Factory will be discussed,
in the context of the recently completed six-month design study for this
facility at FNAL.
