An ultra-compact x-ray free-electron laser [PDF]

New Journal of Physics, 2020
Abstract In the field of beam physics, two frontier topics have taken center stage due to their potential to enable new approaches to discovery in a wide swath of science. These areas are: advanced, high gradient acceleration techniques, and x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs).

X-ray Free-Electron Laser [PDF]

Applied Sciences, 2018
During the last decades, the advent of the short-wavelength Free Electron Lasers (FELs) in the range from extreme ultraviolet (XUV) to hard X-rays has opened a new research avenue for the investigations of ultrafast electronic and structural dynamics in any form of matter[...]

Quantum Effects with an X-Ray Free-Electron Laser [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2002
A quantum kinetic equation coupled with Maxwell's equation is used to estimate the laser power required at an XFEL facility to expose intrinsically quantum effects in the process of QED vacuum decay via spontaneous pair production. A 9 TW-peak XFEL laser with photon energy 8.3 keV could be sufficient to initiate particle accumulation and the consequent

Vacuum birefringence at x-ray free-electron lasers

New Journal of Physics, 2021
We study the perspectives of measuring the phenomenon of vacuum birefringence predicted by quantum electrodynamics using an x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) alone.

Cavity based x-ray free electron laser demonstrator at the European X-ray Free Electron Laser facility

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2023
In this article, the concept of a recently funded R&D project for the installation of a proof-of-concept cavity-based x-ray free electron laser (CBXFEL) demonstrator experiment at the European XFEL facility is presented, with the first results expected in 2024.

Attosecond-Angstrom free-electron-laser towards the cold beam limit

Nature Communications, 2023
Free-electron lasers (FELs) can produce bright X-ray pulses, but require high quality electron beams. Here the authors show how to generate and preserve ultrabright electron beams from plasma-based accelerators for ultra-compact, high-brightness X-ray ...

Transient nuclear inversion by x-ray free electron laser in a tapered x-ray waveguide

Physical Review Research, 2022
The enhancement of x-ray-matter interaction by guiding and focusing radiation from x-ray free electron lasers is investigated theoretically. We show that elliptical waveguides using a cladding material with a high atomic number, such as platinum, can ...
