✦ Synopsis

We present an overview of the process of ionization cooling, which is useable for cooling muons. In ionization cooling, particles pass through a material medium and lose energy (momentum) through ionization interactions, and this is followed by beam reacceleration in RF cavities. The cooling can be sufficient to enable use of muons in highintensity neutrino factories or high-luminosity m + Àm À colliders. The status of m-cooling research is discussed.

A muon ionization cooling channel consists of three major components: the magnet optics, an acceleration cavity, and an energy absorber. The absorber of liquid hydrogen contained by thin aluminum windows is the only component which introduces stochastic processes into the otherwise deterministic acc
