Description

The muon collider is a promising facility for exploring new physics at the energy frontier, combining the advantages of lepton collisions with multi-TeV center-of-mass energies. Achieving the required luminosity requires reducing the six-dimensional (6D) emittance of the muon beam by several orders of magnitude within the muons’ limited lifetime. This reduction can be achieved through ionization cooling, which generally consists of two stages: initial 6D cooling and final transverse cooling. In this work, we present an updated lattice design for both rectilinear 6D cooling and final cooling channels. The optimized design achieves a factor-of-two reduction in the final transverse emittance, representing a significant step toward meeting the beam quality requirements of a future muon collider.
