Why?
• Neutrino physics has become a very hot topic– Fundamental particle– Recent observations show that neutrinos are not massless– Neutrino masses are “something new”
• Physics “beyond the standard model”
– Implications for cosmology
– Possible (part of the) explanation for the matter/antimatter asymmetry of the Universe
• Why is there a physical universe at all?

Shape of Muon Storage Ring
• Racetrack– Single far detector, relatively simple construction
• Maximum ‘efficiency’ ~ 40%• Very intense local beam for conventional neutrino experiments
• Triangle– Two detectors at different distances
• (~1000km, ~3000km or ~3000km, ~6000km)• Maximum ‘efficiency’ ~80%
– Ring built in a steeply inclined plane– Steeply rising local beam for conventional neutrino experiments
• Bow-tie– Advantages as for triangle
• Because of the ‘bow-tie’, the depth is ~½ triangle depth– 2 Steeply rising local beams for conventional neutrino
experiments– May ruin the precision knowledge of the neutrino spectrum

Proton or H- Source and Proton Driver
• Pion production in the 200 - 400 MeV region is essentially proportional to the beam power over a wide range of proton energies– 1-5 MW beam power required for 1020 1021 muons per year– mA proton currents required
• Proton energy is a critical design choice– Ideas at 2.2 GeV (CERN), 5 GeV (RAL), 8 & 16 GeV (FNAL),
15 GeV (CERN), 24 GeV (BNL), 50 GeV (JHF)– ‘figure of merit’ is probably
• pions per steradian per proton per GeV
– Part of the overall design optimisation
• Need better data on pion production– HARP, E910

Target issues/muon source
• Liquid jet … or … solid (moving?) target– no clear consensus
• much R&D needed
– Existing/future high power targets
• RAL/ISIS• CERN/ISOLDE• CERN &

PULSED EFFECTS
Proton beam pulse length (~1 ns) at 100 Hz rate.
rotation
individual overlapping beam pulses on the target, 20 cm long
Faster rotation, illumination by each pulse separate until at v = 20 m/s they just touch.
Slow target rotation - areas illuminated by pulses overlap
At speeds greater than 20 m/s the areas of each pulse separate
The maximum power at a pulse repetition rate f is:
W = 0.322·f
W = 32 MW at 100 Hz

Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment
What does it have to do?
• Demonstrate a cooling channel is feasible
• Measure a 10% reduction in emittance
• Investigate channel performance as a function of
Emittance: 1πmm.mrad to 50 πmm.mrad
Energy: 100 to 400 MeV
Energy spread: “zero” to 20%
Phase, B-field, etc?
• Use a single particle beam

“Hosting a global facility like the neutrino factory would bring substantial scientific
and commercial benefits to the UK”
“We believe that an ambitious and far sighted approach is needed to secure
maximum benefit for UK science”
‘the government will need to show “greater willingness” … to carry out the necessary
development work to put together a serious bid, and then commit the
necessary resources … to see it through’
