THE EUROPEAN XFEL PROJECT

, 2007
The European XFEL will be a free electron laser based on self amplified spontaneous emission in the X-ray regime. The FEL is driven by a superconducting 17.5 GeV linear accelerator, followed by 5 separate undulators both for SASE FEL radiation and incoherent radiation. Start of operation is foreseen for 2013.

An induction heating system for in situ X‐ray diffraction imaging: design, simulation and application to dislocation dynamics in semiconductors

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
This work presents a compact induction heating system for time‐resolved in situ X‐ray diffraction imaging. The system enables contact‐free volumetric heating up to approximately 1600°C and provides flexible operation in different operating modes. Its performance is demonstrated through representative diffraction imaging experiments.We present a compact

Air attenuation of high power XFEL beams

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
The transmission of air, which is used to contain X‐ray beams for radiation safety, is observed to significantly increase with X‐ray power.The Linac Coherent Light Source II, a high‐repetition‐rate X‐ray free‐electron laser (FEL), produces high average power as well as high peak power.

Perspectives on single particle imaging with x rays at the advent of high repetition rate x-ray free electron laser sources

Structural Dynamics, 2020
X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) now routinely produce millijoule level pulses of x-ray photons with tens of femtoseconds duration. Such x-ray intensities gave rise to the idea that weakly scattering particles—perhaps single biomolecules or viruses ...
