  It is given an insight on examples of Upgrades currently under development at the Material Imaging and Dynamics (MID) Instrument of the European XFEL GmbH [1], [2] in the X-ray Scattering System (XSIS) [3]: - The Multi-Environment Setups for a Multi-Detector System (MDS2) are the Setups designed around an additional detector chamber (MDS) to be used at the same time of the AGIPD detector [4], allowing it to cover simultaneously WAXS, SAXS and large field of view regions by using two area detectors, one close to the sample and a second one further away. - The Multi-Purpose Chamber 2 (MPC-2) represents the evolution of the current version and includes the upgraded design of both the exterior vessel and of some local optics assemblies in interior. Both these Upgrades will allow to improve the current MID Beamline performance capabilities and make entirely new experiments possible. - Reported are also Examples of some relevant Experimental Setups successfully designed and implemented going as well in the simultaneous multi-detector-use direction.

  The Multiple Detector Stage (MDS) is an ancillary detector setup for the Materials Imaging and Dynamics (MID) instrument at the European X-Ray Free-Electron Laser Facility (EuXFEL). It is developed to improve the current capabilities concerning X-ray detection and make entirely new experiments possible. A unique feature of the MID instrument is the large flexibility in positioning of the AGIPD detector relative to the sample. This enables a large variety of instrument configurations ranging from small-angle (SAXS) to wide-angle (WAXS) X-ray scattering setups. A recurrent request from the users, which is currently not enabled, is the option of simultaneously recording both wide- and the small angle scattering by using two area detectors. The aim of developing MDS is to provide this missing capability at MID so that SAXS and WAXS experiments can be performed in parallel. The MDS will not be installed permanently at the instrument but only on request to provide as much flexibility as possible. In this article, the background and status of the MDS project is described in detail.
