We propose to build a suite of science instruments that will allow users to take full advantage of LCLS-II, an expansion of the existing Linac Coherent Light Source that is expected to produce first light in 2018. LCLS-II will add two undulator sources for producing x-ray laser beams, tripling the capacity of the current facility. The instrument construction project proposed here, LCLS Ultrafast Science Instruments II (LUSI-II), will greatly enhance the capabilities of LCLS and keep it at the forefront of an intensifying international race to build and operate x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) facilities. The proposed instruments have been identified in collaboration with the scientific community and are in alignment with the DOE mission of managing world-leading basic research programs and stewarding unique user facilities.
