Tests of the spectrometer solenoids have taught us some important lessons. The spectrometer magnet lessons learned fall into two broad categories that involve the two stages of the coolers that are used to cool the magnets. On the first spectrometer magnet, the problems were centered on the connection of the cooler 2nd-stage to the magnet cold mass. On the second spectrometer magnet, the problems were centered on the cooler 1st-stage temperature and the connections between leads, the cold mass support intercept, and the shields to the cooler first-stage. If the cooler 1st-stage temperature is too high, the refrigerator will not produce full 2nd stage cooling. If the 1st-stage temperature is too high, the temperature of the top of the HTS leads. As a result, more heat goes into the 4 K cold mass and the temperature margin of the top of the HTS leads is too small, which are in a magnetic field. The parameters that affect the magnet cooling are compared for the MICE coupling magnet and the spectrometer magnet.

Normal conducting RF cavities must be used for the cooling section of international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) which is currently under construction at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in UK. Eight 201-MHz cavities are needed for the MICE cooling section; fabrication of the first five cavities is nearly complete. This paper reports the cavity fabrication status that includes the cavity design, fabrication techniques and preliminary low power RF measurements of the first five cavities.
