	Generation of ultrashort x-ray pulses (femtoseconds to attoseconds) is attracting much attention within the x-ray FEL user community. At the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), we have successfully delivered femtosecond x-ray pulses to the users with two operating modes – low-charge (20-40pC) scheme and emittance spoiling foil method. Diagnostics on the femtosecond beams is also a challenging topic and good progresses have been made at LCLS. In this paper we report the experimental studies on the two femtosecond operation schemes, the x-ray performance and also the diagnostic progress.

	Funding: Work supported by the Director of the Office of Science of the US Department of Energy under Contract no. DEAC02-05CH11231. Microbunching instability in the accelerator beam delivery system of an FEL can significantly degrade the electron beam quality and limit performance of the X-ray radiation. In this paper, we present detailed numerical simulation and analytical analysis of the microbunching instability in a high repetition rate X-ray FEL beam delivery system that is being studied at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Our results suggest that by using a flexible accelerator design and a laser heater, the effects of microbunching instability can be suppressed without significantly sacrificing the final electron beam quality.

	The Next Generation Light Source (NGLS) is a design concept for a multibeamline soft x-ray FEL array powered by a ~2.4 GeV CW superconducting linear accelerator, operating with a 1 MHz bunch repetition rate. This paper describes the concepts under development for a linac operating at 1.3 GHZ and based on minimal modifications to the design of ILC cryomodules in order to leverage the extensive R&D that resulted in the ILC design. Due to the different nature of the two applications, particular attention is given here to high loaded Q operation andμphonics control, as well as high reliability and expected up time.

Electron bunches supplied by a high-brightness, high-repetition-rate photocathode electron gun are distributed by a beam spreader, designed to deliver individual bunches from a CW linac to an array of independently configurable FEL beamlines with nominal bunch rates up to 100 kHz in each FEL, and with even pulse spacing. We describe recent developments in the technical choices, design and parameters of the spreader system and its main components.

The Next Generation Light Source at LBNL will deliver MHz repetition rate electron beams to an array of free electron lasers. Because of the high beam power approaching one MW in such a facility, effective beam collimation is extremely important to minimize radiation damage, prevent quenches of superconducting cavities, limit dose rates outside of the accelerator tunnel and prevent equipment damage. This paper describes the conceptual design of a collimation system, including detailed simulations to verify its effectiveness.
