Demonstration of Ionisation Cooling paper

http://mice.iit.edu/phonebridge.html

Notes¶

• All agree to read the paper
• Ken Long to suggest modified introductory material
• Add paragraph on single cavity module

• In MC plots; need to show MC truth for the subsample of muons that are in each of the red and blue samples
• Show underlying distributions, e.g.:
  • beam distributions
  • residuals
  • cut variables (pt and p-value)
• Remove 220 mm aperture cut (should only make cuts that can be made on data)
• Worthwhile to compare with MICE Note 466, EMR note
• Should understand the statistical errors; why are they apparently larger for e.g. 200 than for 140
  • Need to add a table or equivalent listing the number of particles that are removed by each cut
• Make input beam distribution multivariate gaussian in px, py, p_total, rather than px, py, pz
