The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) at RAL has collected extensive data to study the ionization cooling of muons. Several million individual particle tracks have been recorded passing through a series of focusing magnets in a number of different configurations and a liquid-hydrogen, lithium-hydride, or polyethylene-wedge absorber. Via measurement of the tracks upstream and downstream of the absorber, we have observed ionization cooling. Our measurement is in good agreement with our simulation of the effect. Further studies are now providing more and deeper insight.
