Outline

• MICE Step and Phase

• Motivation of Phase I

R&D activities for implementation of Phase I

MICE Step and Phase

Phase I

Phase II

Phase is budgetary condition

Motivation of Phase I• Step I

• Beam tuning• Tuning up of PID and Beam counter

• Step II• Various systematic study on tracker• Calibration of spectrometer

• Step IIISystematic calibration of emittance measurement

μ- STEP I: spring 2007

STEP II: summer 2007

STEP III: winter 2008

Reference of later step

Implementation for Phase I

• Beam line & Shielding• PID

• TOF• CKOV• MUCAL

• Spectrometer• SciFi Tracker• Spectrometer Solenoid

• DAQSoftware

MICE Beamline

PID Detectors

SciFi Tracker• Add one more station to 3

station (FNAL, IC)• Close to final design and

manufacture• Connectors• Assembling • Vacuum tight patch conncetors

• Outer cylinder made of carbon fiber (Liverpool)New wave guide system (Osaka)

VLPC readout system• 2 slots VLPC cryostat has been

successfully commissioned. (Great Effort by Russ and Alan)

• Temperatures are as expected by Russ.

• Newly-developed readout board (AFEII) has been tested

Recently success in taking data

KEK Test• Final check before manufacturing real

tracker• Performance check w/ B field (1 Tesla) and

beam

Various systematic study of the tracker

Series of tests• Adopting staging approach?

• Feb, 2005 TOF and ACC test w/o • Performance of single counter

• May, 2005 TOF and ACC test w/Bfiled (final layout)

• Test PID and beam counters w/ magnetic field

• Performance of TOF hodoscope

Aerogel w/

Monitor beam under the condition of Step II

• VME DAQ system

Participants from UK International collaboration

• Aug, 2005 Cosmic-ray test at FNAL/KEK

Sep, 2005 SciFi tracker test

Summary

• There are no show stoppers towards MICE PHase I.

• Magnet delivery date?

• MICE first data will come April, 2007

• Still lot of Task to do within limited time282 + 365 = 647 days left
