Essential for muon accelerators such as neutrino factories or muon colliders, ionization cooling channels use RF cavities to restore the energy lost in liquid hydrogen absorbers. One major limitation in cooling comes from electrons emitted from the cavities which can cause breakdowns or unacceptable thermal load to the liquid hydrogen vessels. In the Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment MICE, these electrons also cause background in the detectors. This paper presents simulations related to these dark currents, and analysis of data from a direct measurement of this radiation in the MuCool Test Area (MTA).
