TI - First Simultaneous Operation of Two Sase Beamlines in FLASH
J2 - Proc. of FEL2015
AB - FLASH2, the second undulator beamline of the FLASH FEL user facility at DESY (Hamburg, Germany) is under commissioning. Its first lasing was achieved in August 2014. FLASH is the first soft X-ray FEL operating two undulator beamlines simultaneously. Both undulator beamlines are driven by a common linear superconducting accelerator with a beam energy of up to 1.25 GeV. Fast kickers and a septum are installed to distribute one part of the electron bunch train to FLASH1 and the other part to FLASH2 with full repetition rate. The commissioning of FLASH2 takes place primarily in parallel to FLASH1 user operation. Various beam optics measurements has been carried out in order to ensure the required electron beam quality for efficient SASE generation. This paper reports the status of the FLASH2 commissioning.
