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.
