if liquid hydrogen is used as the absorber. Note:
because of the small print used in this journal, I had to scan the articles

turns a muon lives in rings of a given magnetic field is first stated here.
68, On the Effects with Muon Colliding Beams, F.F. Tikhonin, JINR Report
P2-4120 (Dubna, 1968). This may be the first mention of particular physics
interest in mu+mu- collidsions. `The possible effect of the weak interaction on
mu+mu-
-> mu+mu- and mu+mu- -> e+e-, both through neutral lepton currents and charged
ones (in the 2nd order of the weak constant) is considered. The calculations
show that P-odd effects would prove the existence of neutral currents which,
in their turn, give the principal basis for an explanation of the mass
difference of a muon and an electron from the point of view of M.A. Markov,
JETP Lett. Vol. 3, 62 (1966).'

An Effective Method of Damping Particle Oscillations in Proton and Antiproton
Storage Rings,
G.I. Budker, Sov. Atomic Energy 22, 438 (1967). In response to
Kolomensky's discussion of ionization cooling, Budker concludes like
Lichtenberg et al. that multiple scattering would mask any cooling. He then
gives the first published analysis of electron cooling (which is a variant of
ionization cooling) -- as a means of
avoiding the problem of multiple scattering in ionziation cooling of protons
beams.
9/66,
Status Report of Works on Storage Rings at Novosibirsk,
G.I. Budker, Proc. Int. Symp. on Colliding Rings (Saclay, Sept. 1966),
p. II-1-1. This may be the first published mention of electron cooling,
which idea Budker credits to O'Neill (and his colleagues). Ionization cooling
is not mentioned.
Comment by Fred Mills (Feb 21, 2008):
"In 1976 at Fermilab we
began investigating cooling for p-pbar colliders.
Shortly thereafter Milton White of Princeton, who was a member of the URA Board,
told me about a need to reduce the emittance of a beam from a van de Graaff
for injection into the Princeton Pennsylvania Accelerator.
This was discussed at a faculty lunch and Lyman Spitzer (a well-known plasma
physicist) suggested a moving electron plasma, i.e., electron beam, with which
to equilibrate the proton beam. Gerry O'Neill, or a student, did some
calculations which showed that the process was too slow to help.
I don't recall whether both Gerry and Gersh Budker were at the 1959 CERN
conference or if so they discussed it there, but the next chance would have
been in 1963 at the Dubna Conference and at Novosibirsk afterwards. Gerry,
Arnold Schoch, about ten others and I visited the INP (now BINP) after the
conference. On the flight back to Moscow, I was accompanied by Igor Meshkov
who built the first electron cooling system for NAP. Igor had built an
electron gun-collector system but had discovered that space charge caused
the effective beam temperature to increase too rapidly. Three years ago
Igor reminded me that I had suggested immersing the beam in a magnetic field
to control it. (I had extensively studied electron beam formation and
propagation when I designed and built the injector for the 50 MeV FFAG at
MURA.) Thus electron cooling was already under way experimentally and
theoretically (Sagdeev et al.) at INP in 1963. Budker then gave his paper
at the Orsay Conference in 1966.
Since they are both deceased, we cannot ask them who came first. My own
view is that while the Princeton bunch fiddled with an idea and dropped it,
INP under Budker, with Meskov and Dikansky, built and tested the system
which proved the method. In fact, Budker built his whole laboratory to
accommodate 25 GeV p-pbar collisions, which doesn't work without cooling.
He deserves to be called the inventor."

F. Lobkowicz, D. Green and S. Serio, UR-875-161 (Aug. 10, 1966). A
continuation of the paper by Tinlot and Green. It is stated on p. 25 that
there is no transverse damping mechanism for the stored muon beam. That is,
ionization cooling was not considered here.

A Storage Ring for 10 BeV/c Muons,
J. Tinlot and D. Green, UR-875-76 (March 10, 1965). The ring is also called a
`trap`. Its purpose is to perform muon-nucleus scattering experiment off
internal targets at SLAC. John Tinlot died in Sept. 1965.
60,
An unpublished note,
A.C. Melissinos (1960). Perhaps the first written discussion of a muon
storage ring. The purpose of the ring was to produce a pure, extracted muon
beam (no pions), that would be used as a source of neutrinos for the famous
BNL 2-neutrino experiment.

Modification of Liouville's Theorem Required by the Presence of Dissipative
Forces,
D.B. Lichtenberg, P. Stehle and K.R. Symon, MURA-126, July 12, 1956. This
paper expands on O'Neill's idea of ionization cooling (and does not mention
wedge cooling). The paper concludes, however, that multiple scattering would
mask any cooling effect.
4/56,
Storage-Ring Synchrotron: Device for High-Energy Physics Research,
G.K. O'Neill, Phys. Rev. 102, 1418 (1956).
First published discussion of wedge
cooling. When E. Wigner heard about this from O'Neill at tea one day (1955-56),
he immediately
commented that this process violates Liouville's theorem. F.C. Shoemaker
believes that Wigner's remark was the first mention of the relevance
of Liouville's theorem to accelerator physics.
[See also MURA88, and footnote 3 of Kerst et al, Phys. Rev. 102, 590 (1956).]
O'Neill then
worked out that the primary effect of the wedge is a phase space exchange.
But, the paper contains a line that indicates that O'Neill understood that
an effect of ionization is that `the area in phase space available to a
particle can be made to decrease with time.' This appears to be the genesis of
ionization cooling. This paper is also O'Neill's first statement of the
advantage of colliding beams over fixed-target in reaching high center of mass
energies.
The MURA
papers below are not concerned with either muons or cooling,
but are the earliest records of the thoughts of Kerst and his immediate
colleagues on the concept of colliding beams.

accelerators in producing large center-of-mass energies, but do not appear to
suggest colliding beams as an improvement.
9/98, Comments by Fred Mills:
I first heard about "ionization
cooling" in 1956 when I went to MURA. The "Piccione lip" on the extraction
target, or foil, was well understood. It reduced the emittance of the beam
(while increasing the momentum spread) in a process we now call "phase space
exchange". Gerry O'Neill of Princeton proposed using this process to increase
the luminosity (a term which had not yet been coined) of Storage Ring
Colliders, (also not yet coined) which he invented at the same time as Don
Lichtenberg and Roger Newton (we called them "Newton's Rings").
There was a disagreement, settled in a MURA Report 126 by Lichtenberg, Stehle and Symon, in which they showed the relationship between energy loss (of any type) and phase space reduction. I suppose this constitutes the "invention" of ionization cooling. Since the cooling required many strong interaction mean free paths, that ended that for hadrons. We of course knew it might work with muons, but that seemed a bit far off, if not far-fetched. At that time ANY collider seemed far-fetched to the HEP community, particularly one using particles from a secondary beam.
I might comment that Lichtenberg et al. missed the phase space exchange simply because they didn't include a change in the coordinate as well as the momentum in the generalized forces, nor did they consider individual projected phase spaces. This is shown in my 1963 NIM paper on radiation damping of electrons.
Just before Milt White died he cornered me (I was beginning to work on electron and stochastic cooling at Fermilab, he was president of URA) and told me about the origin of the electron cooling idea. At a faculty meeting Milt and Gerry were talking about how to reduce the emittance of the van der Graaff beam which was to be injected into the PPA. Lyman Spitzer suggested that they could do it by passing the proton beam along with an electron beam of the same velocity, but he pointed out that it was impractical because it would take too long a path. Gerry got a student working on it but never pursued it much further. I heard about this work at MURA in the 50's also. In Budker's first paper (Saclay, 1966) he states "this is an idea told to me by Gerry O'Neill". Of course Budker saw to the development of the theory and practice of electron cooling and deserves to be called its inventor. By the same standard, there is as yet no inventor of ionization cooling.
In 1956, after a Postdoc helping to make one of R.R. Wilson's machines work, I went to MURA where in one year I learned at least ten times as much as I had at Cornell. One year later, we effortlessly turned on the world's first spiral sector accelerator. I suggested to Don Kerst that we should send a letter to Phys. Rev. Don smiled and said that it would not be accepted. After I persisted, he agreed. The letter was turned down. I had to confront the fact that the field I was in had no legitimate means of publishing its work. Only in 1965 with the advent of the PAC (I was asked to be on its first committees, but sent someone else) was there any means of publication, even in a non-refereed form. NIM and RSI would take review articles occasionally...
