  A Hard X-ray Self-Seeding setup is currently under realization at the European XFEL, and will be ready for installation in 2018. The setup consists of two single-crystal monochromators that will be installed at the SASE2 undulator line. In this contribution, after a short summary of the physical principles and of the design, we will discuss the present status of the project including both electron beam and X-ray optics hardware. We will also briefly discuss the expected performance of the setup, which is expected to produce nearly Fourier-limited pulses of X-ray radiation with increased brightness compared to the baseline of the European XFEL, as well as possible complementary uses of the two electron chicanes.

  Beam halo measurements and collimations are of great importance at the European XFEL, especially for the operation at high repetition rates (27000 pulses/s). First beam halo measurements have been performed during the commissioning using the wire scanners installed before and after the ~200 m long post-linac collimation section. We present the measurement results and the comparison of beam halo distributions before and after the collimation section.

  For the implementation of Hard X-ray Self-Seeding (HXRSS) at European XFEL, short electron-beam bunches (FWHM ≤ 50 fs) are preferred to mitigate spatio-temperal coupling effect and to fit to the seeding bump width. Therefore, operations with low charges (< 250 pC) are preferred. Longitudinal phase-space optimization has been performed for the 100 pC case by flattening the current distribution. Start-to-end simulations show that, with the optimized distribution, for the photon energy of 14.4 keV, the HXRSS output power, pulse energy and spectral intensity can be increased by a factor of approximately 2 as compared to the nominal working point.
