MICE, Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment, team at the facility during construction at STFC's Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, 11th February 2015. The experiment is designed to demonstrate the concept of ionisation cooling of muons to maximise the number of muons available for acceleration, storage and the eventual production of neutirnos in a Neutrino Factory. Science proceeds through …
