A muon collider would open new frontiers of investigation in high energy particle physics, allowing precision measurements to be made at the TeV energy frontier. One of the greatest challenges to constructing a muon collider is the preparation of a beam of muons on a timescale comparable to the lifetime of the muon. Frictional cooling is a potential solution to this problem. In this paper, we briefly describe frictional cooling and detail the Frictional Cooling Demonstration (FCD) experiment at the Max Planck Institute for Physics, Munich. The FCD experiment, which aims to verify the working principles behind frictional cooling, is at the end of the commissioning phase and will soon begin data taking.
