AB - The Soft X-ray Laser (SXL) is a project aiming to build a new beamline that will exploit the potential of the MAX IV 3 GeV linac and its Short Pulse Facility (SPF). In fact, this injector, which is routinely used as an electron source for the two rings in the laboratory, is capable of delivering ultra-brilliant electron pulses and possibly driving a Free Electron Laser (FEL). While the necessary technical improvements and features of the linac are described in another contribution, this paper presents the baseline layout of the SXL FEL and point out the features of the photon source that should deliver brilliant pulses between 1 and 5 nm. The baseline design consists of a SASE FEL with variable polarization undulators. However, the plan is to develop a comprehensive system of external sources at various wavelength in order to enable various pump-probe schemes, thereby satisfying the requests of the users community. Moreover the design needs to take into account the possibility of accommodating two-pulse-two-color capability and the production of femtosecond or even attosecond pulses.
