Description
High precision experiments including the measurement of the muon g−2, muonium spectroscopy and muonium gravity would benefit from intense high-quality and low-energy muon beams.
At the Paul Scherrer Institute, the muCool device is being developed to compress the phase space of a standard μ+ beam by a factor of 10^9 with 10^−4 efficiency. This is achieved with a cryogenic helium gas cell and complex E and B-fields. Once compressed, the beam is extracted from a small orifice into a vacuum and into a magnetic field free region.
This talk will outline the present status and future prospects of the experiment with a special focus on the extraction stage.
