Generation of High-Power High-Intensity Short X-Ray Free-Electron-Laser Pulses
Abstract
X-ray free-electron lasers combine a high pulse power, short pulse length, narrow bandwidth, and high degree of transverse coherence. Any increase in the photon pulse power, while shortening the pulse length, will further push the frontier on several key x-ray free-electron laser applications including single-molecule imaging and novel nonlinear x-ray methods. This Letter shows experimental results at the Linac Coherent Light Source raising its maximum power to more than 300% of the current limit while reducing the photon pulse length to 10 fs. As a result, this was achieved by minimizing residual transverse-longitudinal centroid beam offsets and beam yaw and by correcting the dispersion when operating over 6 kA peak current with a longitudinally shaped beam.

FIG. 1.: ELEGANT simulation of the LCLS showing beam yaw (μ) and lattice (η̂) dispersion prior and after a beam yaw correction. Included sources of beam yaw are the transverse wakefields and the CSR. The correction was done using a singular value decomposition algorithm as further detailed in Ref. [26].more »
