The international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will demonstrate ionization cooling–the technique by which it is proposed to reduce the phase-space volume occupied by the muon beam. MICE is being constructed in a series of Steps. The configuration currently in operation at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory is optimised for the study the properties of liquid hydrogen and lithium hydride that affect cooling. The plans for data taking in the present configuration will be described together with a summary of the status of preparation of the experimental configuration by which MICE will demonstration the principle of ionization cooling.
