The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will demonstrate ionization cooling in a short section of a realistic cooling channel using a muon beam at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in the UK. The MICE RF and Coupling Coil Module comprises a superconducting solenoid mounted around four normal conducting 201.25-MHz RF cavities. Each cavity has a pair of thin curved beryllium windows to close the conventional open beam irises. The coil package that surrounds the RF cavities is to be mounted on the outside of a 1.4 m diameter vacuum vessel. The coupling coil confines the beam in the cavity module and, in particular, within the radius of the cavity beam windows. The two MICE coupling solenoids will be operated in series using a 300 A, 10 V power supply. The maximum longitudinal force that will be carried by the cold mass support system is 0.5 MN during the expected operating and failure modes of the experiment. The detailed design and analysis of the two coupling coils has been completed, and the fabrication of the magnets is under way. The primary magnetic and mechanical design features of the coils are presented along with a summary of key fabrication issues.
