  To equip SACLA with wide ability to provide a laser beams in EUV and soft X-ray regions to experimental users, we have constructed a new free electron laser facility for SACLA beamline-1. Injector components, such as a thermionic electron gun, two buncher cavities, a S-band standing wave accelerator, S-band travelling wave accelerator and their RF sources, were relocated from the SCSS test accelerator, which was a prototype machine of SACLA. At the downstream of a bunch compressor chicane, three C-band 40 MV/m acceleration units were newly installed to effectively boost a beam energy up to 470 MeV. Two in-vacuum undulators were remodeled by changing the period of magnet array from 15 mm to 18 mm to increase SASE intensity by a larger K-value of 2.1. Beam commissioning was started in autumn 2015. So far SASE radiation at a 33 nm wavelength driven by a 470 MeV electron beam was observed. We will install the third undulator in this winter to obtain SASE saturation and additional C-band accelerator units in the next summer to raise the maximum beam energy to 750 MeV. In this presentation, the overview of the facility and the commissioning status will be reported.

  Conceptual design report for the SPring-8 upgrade project (SPring-8-II) was published in November of 2014. Vacuum system for the targeted storage ring should handle some fateful boundary conditions, such as miniaturization of vacuum chamber and increase in number of photon absorbers resulting from the multi-bend achromat configuration. Furthermore, reuse of the existing tunnel brings the severe packing factor issue of vacuum components and the time constraints issue of one-year blackout. Considering the above circumstances, a concept of 12-m long vacuum chamber with welded integral structure was proposed to omit in-situ baking. The 12-m long chamber will be evacuated to ultra-high vacuum by ex-situ baking followed by NEG activation, and moved to the tunnel with special thin gate valves at both ends. Recently, the chamber material has been changed from aluminum alloy to stainless steel (SS) from the viewpoints of elimination of aluminum-SS transition space, beam vibration suppression, and superior outgassing property. Trial production of SS chamber is proceeding to establish appropriate manufacturing processes, while focusing on the accuracy of dimension and magnetic permeability.

  In the upcoming major upgrade project of SPring-8 (SPring-8-II) planned in the early 2020's, the electron energy will be reduced from 8 GeV to 6 GeV and the straight sections will be shortened by nearly 2 m to accommodate more magnets, for the purpose of reducing the emittance down to around 100 pm.rad. The insertion devices (IDs) currently installed in SPring-8 are not compatible with the above upgrade plan, and thus most of them should be replaced with new ones optimized in the new storage ring, or at least be shortened to fit into the new straight sections. We report the status of R&Ds toward realization of IDs for SPring-8-II, such as shortening the magnetic period, reforming the fundamental structure of IDs to reduce the total cost and manufacturing lead time, and refurbishment of existing IDs for shorter lengths.
