A new scientific frontier opened in 2009 with the start of operations of the world's first x-ray
free-electron laser (FEL), the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), at SLAC National …

Linear accelerators delivering high brightness electron beams are essential for a number of
current and proposed accelerator applications, such as free electron lasers (FELs). In this …

Abstract The recently commissioned Linac Coherent Light Source is an X-ray free-electron
laser at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. It produces coherent soft and hard X-rays …

An era of exploring the interactions of high-intensity, hard X-rays with matter has begun with
the start-up of a hard-X-ray free-electron laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) …

The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is an x-ray free-electron laser project presently in a
commissioning phase at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We report here on very …

Abstract The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) became the first ever operational hard x-
ray free-electron laser in 2009. It will operate as a user facility capable of delivering unique …

In this Letter we report the first experiments aimed at the simultaneous demonstration of the
emittance compensation process and velocity bunching in a high brightness electron …

With the scientific successes of the soft X-ray FLASH facility in Germany and the recent
spectacular commissioning of the Linac Coherent Light Source at SLAC, free electron lasers …

We propose a novel method to characterize the temporal duration and shape of
femtosecond x-ray pulses in a free-electron laser (FEL) by measuring the time-resolved …

Echo-enabled harmonic generation free electron lasers hold great promise for the
generation of fully coherent radiation in x-ray wavelengths. Here we report the first evidence …
