Particle beam cooling

Particle beam cooling is the process of improving the quality of particle beams produced by particle accelerators, by reducing the emittance. Techniques for particle beam cooling include:^[1]

Stochastic cooling^[2]
Electron cooling^[3]^[4]
Ionization cooling
Laser cooling^[5]
Radiation damping
Buffer-gas cooling within RF quadrupoles
