  • Abstract
    We discuss a conceptual design for a compact muon cooling system based on a weak-focusing ring loaded with high-pressure hydrogen gas. We demonstrate that such a ring will be capable of cooling a circulating muon beam in each of the three spatial dimensions so that 6D cooling of the muon beam phase space can be achieved.
