Description

The cooling process is one of the most critical challenges for the future Muon Collider, as muons are initially produced with a very large emittance that must be significantly reduced before acceleration. This cooling must occur rapidly, well within the muon lifetime. At low energies, collective effects such as space charge and intrabeam scattering can strongly influence emittance growth and must therefore be considered in the lattice design, which is currently under development. This work presents studies of space charge and intrabeam scattering effects in the latest Muon Collider cooling lattice design, evaluating their impact on emittance growth using the tracking code RF-Track.
