UCLA Ring Cooler
Workshop

UCLA Department of Physics & Astronomy
March 20, 2003






 

 

 







This recent workshop made significant progress towards understanding the muon cooling rings with
solenoid, quadrupole, and dipole magnets, RF cavities, wedge absorbers, and the Lithium lenses.

Our goal is to start a working group to design a scale model of a table top storage ring which can
demonstrate the beam dynamics of the muon cooling rings without RF cavities and absorbers.

The first meeting will take place at UC Riverside in mid-August 2003. Preliminary plans call for using
either electrons or protons to study the dynamic aperture and the energy acceptance of the storage ring
in the scale model.

Key issues include how to diagnose the beam and how to inject the beam into the table top ring.
Intensive simulation will lead to the selection of options on the table top test rings.
