This document summarizes the work of Accelerator Working Group (AWG) International Scoping Study (ISS) a Future Neutrino Factory and Superbeam Facility. The main goal activity was to reach consensus on baseline design for complex, including proton driver parameters, choice target, front-end design, acceleration system decay ring geometry. Another explore commonality, if any, between those or Beta Beam facility. In general, requirements either latter facilities are less stringent than...

The CP nature of the Higgs coupling to top quarks is addressed in this paper, single charged lepton final states $t\bar{t}h$ events produced proton-proton collisions at LHC. Pure scalar ($h=H$) and pseudo-scalar ($h=A$) boson signal events, generated with MadGraph5_aMC@NLO, are fully reconstructed using a kinematic fit. Angular distributions decay products, as well CP-sensitive asymmetries, exploited separate gain sensitivity possible components reduce contribution from dominant irreducible...

A novel single-particle technique to measure emittance has been developed and used characterise seventeen different muon beams for the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment (MICE). The beams, whose mean momenta vary from 171 281 MeV/c, have emittances of approximately 1.5--2.3 \pi mm-rad horizontally 0.6--1.0 vertically, a horizontal dispersion 90--190 mm momentum spreads about 25 MeV/c. There is reasonable agreement between measured parameters results simulations. are found meet requirements MICE.

A muon collider would enable the big jump ahead in energy reach that is needed for a fruitful exploration of fundamental interactions. The challenges producing collisions at high luminosity and 10 TeV centre mass are being investigated by recently-formed International Muon Collider Collaboration. This Review summarises status recent advances on colliders design, physics detector studies. aim to provide global perspective field outline directions future work.

The Muon Ionization Cooling Experiment (MICE) will perform a detailed study of ionization cooling to evaluate the feasibility technique. To carry out this program, MICE requires an efficient particle-identification (PID) system identify muons. Electron-Muon Ranger (EMR) is fully-active tracking-calorimeter that forms part PID and tags muons traverse channel without decaying. detector capable identifying electrons with efficiency 98.6%, providing purity for beam exceeds 99.8%.

High-brightness muon beams of energy comparable to those produced by state-of-the-art electron, proton and ion accelerators have yet be realised. Such the potential carry search for new phenomena in lepton-antilepton collisions extremely high also provide uniquely well-characterised neutrino beams. A beam may created through decay pions interaction a with target. To produce high-brightness from such source requires that phase space volume occupied muons reduced (cooled). Ionization cooling...
