WEXM01 | Overview of VUV and Soft X-Ray FELs Worldwide | 1938 |
|
||
A comprehensive overview of the status of FEL projects worldwide providing photons in the VUV to soft X-ray region. The paper should give an update of projects, the technolgies proposed and methods for stable high brilliance user beams. Seeding schemes should be discussed along with critical issues for reaching the shorter wavelengths.

WEXM02 | Status of the Linac Coherent Light Source | 1939 |
|
||
The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is a free-electron laser facility in construction at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. It is designed to operate in the wavelength range 0.15-1.5 nanometers. At the time of this conference, civil construction of new tunnels and buildings is complete, the necessary modifications to the SLAC linac are complete, and the undulator system and x-ray optics/diagnostics are being installed. The electron gun, 135 MeV injector linac and 250 MeV bunch compressor were commissioned in 2007*. Accelerator commissioning activities are presently devoted to the achievement of performance goals for the completed linac.
