LCLS-II-HE at SLAC will be a transformative X-ray tool for the scientific mission of DOE Basic Energy Sciences (BES) and for the nation. It represents the vital next step in the ongoing revolution in X-ray lasers, triggered by the world’s first demonstration of a hard X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) by LCLS in 2009. Its capability moves far beyond the present generation of XFELs and the ultimate potential of storage rings, firmly maintaining the U.S. as the international leader in the science enabled by X-ray sources. The unmatched performance of this facility will serve the needs of a broad scientific user community focused on some of the most critical challenges facing our society, while providing extraordinary potential for scientific discovery and attracting the best and brightest scientific talent.
