  SLAC is developing the Lightsource Unified Modeling Environment (LUME) for efficient modeling of X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) performance. This project takes a holistic approach starting with the simulation of the electron beams, to the production of the photon pulses, to their transport through the optical components of the beamline, to their interaction with the samples and the simulation of the detectors, and finally followed by the analysis of simulated data. LUME leverages existing, well-established simulation codes, and provides standard interfaces to these codes via open-source Python packages. Data are exchanged in standard formats based on openPMD and its extensions. The platform is built with an open, well-documented architecture so that science groups around the world can contribute specific experimental designs and software modules, advancing both their scientific interests and a broader knowledge of the opportunities provided by the exceptional capabilities of X-ray FELs.

A cavity-based hard x-ray free-electron laser (CBXFEL) could produce fully coherent pulses with a bandwidth several orders of magnitude below the intrinsic bandwidth of SASE. A cavity-based FEL is not a new concept - the first FEL was an oscillator operating at 3.4 um - but single-pass amplification of spontaneous radiation was the fastest path to gigawatt x-ray powers. One unproven component of a CBXFEL is a stable, high reflectivity cavity. To address this deficit we present ring-down measurements in a 20 m round-trip cold cavity operating at 9.8 keV. The cavity is composed of four strain-relief-cut diamond 400 Bragg mirrors and a transmission grating for in/out-coupling. It is a testbed for alignment protocols and component performance under realistic experimental conditions like source instability, optics imperfections, and thermal drift.
