Ionization cooling

In accelerator physics, ionization cooling is a physical process for reducing the beam emittance of a charged particle beam ("cooling") by passing the particles through some material, reducing their momentum as they ionize atomic electrons in the material.Thus the normalised beam emittance is reduced. By re-accelerating the beam, for example in an RF cavity, the longitudinal momentum may be restored without replacing transverse momentum. Thus overall the angular spread and hence the geometric emittance in the beam will be reduced. rdf:langString

Thus overall the angular spread and hence the geometric emittance in the beam will be reduced. Ionization cooling can be spoiled by stochastic physical processes. Multiple Coulomb scattering of muons as well as nuclear scattering of protons and ions can reduce the cooling or even lead to net heating transverse to the direction of beam motion. In addition, energy straggling can cause heating parallel to the direction of beam motion.
