High-brightness XFEL is demanding for many users, in particular for certain types of imaging applications. Seeded FELs including self-seeding XFELs were successfully demonstrated. Alternative approaches by enhancing slippage between the x-ray pulse and the electron bunch were also demonstrated. This class of Slippage-enhanced SASE (SeSASE) schemes can be unique for FEL spectral range between 1.5 keV to 4 keV where neither grating-based soft x-ray self-seeding nor crystal-based hard x-ray self-seeding can easily access. SeSASE can provide high-brightness XFEL for high repetition rate machines not suffering from heat load on the crystal monochromator. We report start-to-end simulation results for LCLS-II project and PAL-XFEL project with study on tolerance. Performance comparison between SaSASE FEL and self-seeding FEL in the overlapping frequency range is also presented.
