The study of rare processes using a beam of muons that stop in a target provides access to new physics at and beyond the reach of energy frontier colliders. The flux of stopping muons is limited by the pion production process and by stochastic processes in the material used to slow down the decay muons. Innovative muon beam collection and cooling techniques are applied to the design of stopping muon beams in order to provide better beams for such experiments. Such intense stopping beams will also support the development of applications such as muon spin resonance and muon-catalyzed fusion. |
