Muon Ionization Cooling demonstrator 

ORAL

Abstract

A multi-TeV muon collider has the unique potential to offer both precision measurements and unprecedented energy reach within a single facility - capabilities unmatched by current technologies. Realizing such a machine will require a multi-decadal accelerator R&D program aimed at overcoming key technological challenges. A primary objective of this program will be the demonstration of muon ionization cooling technology. This will require a dedicated Demonstrator facility supported by significant expertise, infrastructure, and resources. In this presentation, we will outline a conceptual design for a Muon Ionization Cooling Demonstrator, including initial concepts for the target system, magnet configurations, and RF cavities. We will also discuss the key design parameters, as well as the potential siting options at Fermilab and CERN.
