  Validation test of optical stochastic cooling (OSC) with 100 MeV electron beam is designed at IOTA ring at Fermilab. A beam diagnostic system for the test is discussed in this paper. The beam position and bunch length will be measured by using a standard button-pickup BPM; while the beam emittance will be measured by using a CCD-based synchrotron light detector. Especially, accurate time measurement is essential to carry out OSC experiments with a single particle. Desired time resolution is the order of 100 ps to study the cooling decrement in various lattice parameters. SiPM is an attractive solid-state device to detect a time domain synchrotron radiation photon. It can realize a fast rise time < 100 ps with a short time width 1-2 ns FWHM and its quantum efficiency is > 40 % at 420 nm. The beam instrumentation required to tune timing in the OSC insert is also discussed. It is based on the interference of radiation coming from the pickup and kicker undulators.

  The number of applications that could benefit from effective, affordable muon cooling include stopping muon beams for rare decay searches and spin resonance, intermediate energy beams for neutrino factories and cargo scanning, and muon colliders for HIggs factories and the energy frontier. The simple ionization cooling equation implies that if you have a low-Z energy absorber in a strong magnetic field, sufficient RF to contain the beam and replace the lost energy, and some mechanism for emittance exchange, you can achieve low 6-d emittance down to the limit implied by multiple scattering. The first cooling simulations that were based on a ring were exciting and encouraging. Unfortunately, injection difficulties, beam loading of RF cavities and energy absorbers, and the need to modify cooling parameters as the beam cools have led us away from a ring towards a cooling channel. An effective demonstration experiment must show that the final muon beam parameters to achieve the required luminosity can be achieved at an acceptable cost. We discuss the possibility that a demonstration experiment is a section of a practical, high performance cooling channel.

  Linear beam dynamics of muons in a helical cooling channel is non-trivial. Betatron oscillation in the channel is induced by coupling of motions in xyz-planes. As a result, the analytic eigen values are very complicated. The cooling decrements are controlled by tuning coupling strength. The helical dynamic parameters are translated into the conventional accelerator physics term. Non-linear dynamics in the helical channel is studied by using the conventional accelerator technique. The beam-plasma interaction in a high-pressure hydrogen gas-filled RF cavity is a new physics process and important to design the cooling channel. Machine development of helical beam elements is also shown in this presentation.

Ionization cooling is the preferred method of cooling a muon beam for the purposes of a bright muon source. This process works by sending a muon beam through an absorbing material and replacing the lost longitudinal momentum with radio frequency (RF) cavities. To maximize the effect of cooling, a small optical beta function is required at the locations of the absorbers. Strong focusing is therefore required, and as a result normal conducting RF cavities must operate in external magnetic fields on the order of 10 Tesla. Vacuum and high pressure gas filled RF test cells have been studied at the MuCool Test Area at Fermilab. Methods for mitigating breakdown in both test cells, as well as the effect of plasma loading in the gas filled test cell have been investigated. The results of these tests, as well as the current status of the two leading muon cooling channel designs, will be presented.
