  The European XFEL is a multi-user X-ray FEL facility based on superconducting linear accelerator. Presently, three undulators (SASE1, SASE2, SASE3) routinely deliver high-brightness soft- and hard- X-ray beams for users. There are two empty undulator tunnels that were originally designed to operate with spontaneous radiators in the range 20-90 keV. We consider, instead a possible installation of two FEL undulators. One of them (SASE4) is proposed for operation in a standard (7-25 keV) range as well as in ultrahard (25-100 keV) regime. We discuss a possible location and length of SASE4, modifications of electron beam transport, beam dynamics, choice of undulator technology, different operation modes (SASE and advanced lasing concepts) etc.

  FLASH is the first soft X-ray FEL user facility, routinely providing brilliant photon beams for users since 2005. There are plans to upgrade both existing undulator lines of this facility, FLASH1 and FLASH2. FLASH1 will mainly operate in XUV range in seeding and SASE modes, while FLASH2 will use the standard SASE regime as well as new lasing concepts aiming at production of brilliant photon beams on the fundamental and harmonics down to 1nm. In this paper we present a concept for FLASH2 upgrade, and discuss different advanced options.

  Harmonic lasing in XFELs is an opportunity to extend the photon energy range of existing and planned X-ray FEL user facilities. Contrary to nonlinear harmonic generation, harmonic lasing can provide much more intense, stable, and narrow-band FEL beam. Another interesting application is Harmonic Lasing Self-Seeding (HLSS) that allows to improve longitudinal coherence and spectral power of a Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission (SASE) FEL. This concept was successfully tested at FLASH2 in the range of 4.5 - 15 nm and at PAL XFEL at 1 nm. In this contribution we present recent results from the European XFEL where we successfully demonstrated operation of HLSS FEL at 5.9 A, thus pushing harmonic lasing for the first time into the Angstrom regime.

  Longitudinal space-charge effects can act as a driver for short wavelength radiation production in a longitudinal space-charge amplifier (LSCA) *. A single cascade of an LSCA was tested using the hardware of the sFLASH experiment installed at the FEL user facility FLASH (at DESY, Hamburg). Scans of the longitudinal dispersion of the chicane were performed with the tightly focused electron beam for different compression settings, while recording the intensity of the emission from a few-period undulator. We present experimental results and estimates on electron beam properties.
