Title:     A Hot Topic with Cool Results - Muon Frictional Cooling

Abstract: A muon collider would be a boon to high energy particle physics. Muon cooling is the main technological obstacle in the building of a muon collider. A muon cooling scheme based on Frictional Cooling holds promise in overcoming this obstacle. The Frictional Cooling concept will be described and the results of simulation efforts summarized. An experiment designed to demonstrate the Frictional Cooling concept using protons was undertaken. Although the results were inconclusive in the observation of cooling, the data allowed for the qualification of detailed simulations which are used to simulate the performance of a muon collider.

TRIUMF Research Scientist candidate.

Stimulants available 15 minutes before the talk.
