Applications are now being invited for access to the Ionisation Cooling Test Facility (ICTF) based at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, including the MICE experiment.
Financial support offered includes provisions for travel and subsistence expenses and access to the beam free of charge, and is designed to aid the presence of researchers at RAL in equipment delivery and data taking and analysis in support of muon cooling experiments, including the MICE experiment. It will also support external users of the beam for tests of particle physics detectors in a low-energy beam and proponents of new cooling experiments to undertake studies, installations and eventually data taking.
A typical experiment is expected to last for about 2 beam-weeks and require the presence of up to 6 external users.
The deadline for applications is the 11th of September 2014, with the applications panel meeting a week later, on the 18th of September.
