The design of the time-of-flight system for MICE

Instrumentation and Detectors 2019-08-13 v1

Abstract

The international Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will carry out a systematic investigation of ionization cooling of a muon beam. As the emittance measurement will be done on a particle-by-particle basis, a sophisticated beam instrumentation is needed to measure particle coordinates and timing vs RF. The MICE time-of-flight system will measure timings with a resolution better than 70 ps per plane, in a harsh environment due to high particle rates, fringe magnetic fields and electron backgrounds from RF dark noise.
