## Year in Review

- Alan Bross 		MUTAC                     April 9,  2008

**Year in Review**

**It has been an EXTREMELY productive year for us**
**MERIT – successful completion of the experiment with unambiguous demonstration of > 4MW power handling**
**MICE – First beam, good progress on detector systems and coupling coil**
**Cooling R&D **
**19MV/m gradient demonstrated @201 MHz**
**Continue experiments @805 MHz**
**New understanding of B Field effects with extension of modeling of breakdown mechanisms**
