TUPWA054 | The FERMI Seeded FEL Facility: Operational Experience and Future Perspectives | 1538 |
|
||
FERMI is the seeded FEL user facility in Trieste, Italy, producing photons from the VUV to the soft X-rays with a high degree of coherence and spectral stability. Both FEL lines, FEL-1 and FEL-2, are now available for users, down to the shortest wavelength of 4 nm. We will report on the completion of the commissioning of the high energy FEL line, FEL-2, and on the operational experience for users, in particular those requiring specific FEL configurations, like two-colour experiments. We will also give a perspective on the improvements and upgrades which have been triggered by our experience and are aiming to maintain as well as to constantly improve the performance of the facility for our user community. | ||

TUPMA028 | Feasibility Study for an X-ray FEL Oscillator at the LCLS-II | 1897 |
|

Funding: This work supported in part under US Department of Energy contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. We show that a free-electron laser oscillator generating X-ray pulses with hard X-ray wavelengths of order 0.1 nm is feasible using the presently proposed FEL-quality electron beam within the space of existing LCLS-II infrastructure when combined with a low-loss X-ray crystal cavity. In an oscillator configuration driven by the 4 GeV energy electron beam lasing at the fifth harmonic, output x-ray bandwidths as small as a few meV are possible. The delivered average spectral flux is at least two orders of magnitude greater than present synchrotron-based sources with highly stable, coherent pulses of duration 1 ps or less for applications in Mössbauer spectroscopy and inelastic x-ray scattering. |
