Description
The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) at RAL has collected extensive data to study the ionization cooling of
muons. Several million individual particle tracks have been recorded passing through a series of focusing magnets in
a number of different configurations and a liquid hydrogen or lithium hydride absorber. Measurement of the tracks
upstream and downstream of the absorber has shown the expected effects of the 4D emittance reduction. Further
studies are providing now more and deeper insight.
