AB - Low emittance muon beam lines and muon colliders are potentially a rich source of BSM physics for future experimenters. A normalized transverse muon emittance of 280 microns has been achieved in simulation with short solenoids and a betatron function of 3 cm. Here we use ICOOL, G4Beamline, and MAD-X to explore using a flat 400 MeV/c muon beam and strong focusing quadrupoles to achieve a normalized transverse emittance of 100 microns and finish 6D cooling. The low beta regions, as low as 5 mm, produced by the quadrupoles are occupied by dense, low Z absorbers, such as lithium hydride or beryllium, that cool the beam. Equilibrium transverse emittance is linearly proportional to the beta function. Reverse emittance exchange with septa and/or wedges is then used to decrease transverse emittance from 100 to 25 microns at the expense of longitudinal emittance for a high energy lepton collider. Cooling challenges include chromaticity correction, momentum passband overlap, quadrupole acceptance, and staying in phase with RF.
