International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment

The International Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (IMICE) is a research initiative aimed at studying and developing techniques for muon ionization cooling, a process essential for creating a viable muon-based particle accelerator. Muons are unstable elementary particles similar to electrons but with a much greater mass. They are of interest in high-energy physics and potential applications in future particle colliders due to their unique properties.
