m Muons, Inc. PIC Concept • Parametric resonance induced in muon cooling channel • Muon beam naturally focused with period of free oscillations • Wedge-shaped absorber plates combined with energy-restoring RF cavities placed at focal points (assuming aberrations corrected) • Ionization cooling maintains constant angular spread • Parametric resonance causes strong beam size reduction • Emittance exchange at wedge absorbers produces longitudinal cooling • Resulting equilibrium transverse emittances are an order of magnitude smaller than in conventional ionization cooling Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Absorber plates Parametric resonance lenses w Muons, Inc. PIC Schematic • Equilibrium angular spread and beam size at absorber • Equilibrium emittance (a factor of improvement) Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. PIC Requirements • Varying dispersion • small at absorbers to minimize energy straggling • non-zero at absorbers for emittance exchange • large between focal points for compensating chromatic and spherical aberrations • Correlated optics • normal-mode oscillations’ periods must be low-integer multiples of dispersion magnitude oscillation period 1,2 / D = 1 or 2 • Required features can be produced by epicyclic magnetic field configuration • solenoid with two superimposed different-period transverse helical fields • uniform smoothly-varying fringe-field-free configuration Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. Simplified PIC Model • Two transverse helical fields with wave numbers k1 and k2 • Equation of motion • Cyclotron wave number • Analytic solution under approximation kc = const (pz = const) Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. Oscillating Dispersion • Dispersion function containing two oscillating terms • Condition for dispersion to periodically return to zero • k1= k2= kc/2 k gives B1= 9B2 and elliptic orbit • Dispersion function Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009

m Muons, Inc. EPIC Based on HCC • pT /pz~ 1gives more complicated picture • Since B2<< B1 , consider secondary helix perturbation • Start with single-periodic Helical Cooling Channel (HCC) • exact analytic solution • well-studied in simulations • orbit stability conditions Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. HCC Stability Region & Normal-Mode Tunes • In usual HCC sgn(k) = sgn(kc), > 0 • In EPIC channel sgn(k) = sgn(kc), < 0 Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009

m Muons, Inc. Effective Force Approach • Introduce effective “friction” force • total energy conserved while phase volume is not • analogous to cooling • all trajectories converge towards periodic orbit • aids in finding periodic orbit when analytic solution is not available Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009

Possible Technical Implementations • Solenoid with direct superposition of required helical harmonics • Adopt procedure developed for HCC by Kashikhin et al. • circular current loops centered on elliptical helix (different from periodic orbit) Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. Incorporating RF in 2-period HS • Hydrogen-pressurized RF cavity • Be wedge included in the walls replaces grids used with HPRF • many of required technical solutions already exist (using ceramic ring to adjust frequency, small-diameter power feed through…) • or Tapered no-RF cooling blocks with RF sections in between • Transverse-longitudinal coupling is minimal Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
m Muons, Inc. Recent Progress • Found magnetic field configuration giving required dispersion • uniform • smoothly-varying • fringe-field free • Showed preliminary demonstration of needed features • Developed technique to identify periodic orbit • straightforward to find normal-mode tunes numerically using single-period orbital transfer matrix • Came up with ideas for technical implementation • Have ideas how to incorporate RF • Started preliminary G4BeamLine simulations Muon Collider Design Workshop BNL, December 1-3, 2009
