MICE Overview - Physics Goals and Prospects<br />

Ionization cooling, a technique in which<br />

muon beam is passed through a series of ab- M. Yoshida (Osaka University)<br />

sorbers and followed by RF-acceleration, is a<br />

proposed method for cooling muon beam, i.e., phase-space reduction. The international Muon Ionisation Cooling<br />

Experiment (MICE), which will construct and operate a realistic cooling channel and measure the beam cooling<br />

performance, is the first essential step towardsrealization of nutrino factories and eventually muon colliders based on<br />

intense muon sources. The MICE have got approved to be constructedin Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and<br />

the fist beam commissioning is scheduled in 2007. The physics goal and future prospects of the MICE together with<br />

the beamline and the instruments which is now being built will be described.<br />
