Session 5
Characterizing spatiotemporal properties of XFEL pulses is of great importance not only for analyzing experiments, but for giving effective feedbacks to machine operations. As simple and cost effective ways to diagnose XFEL pulses, we have developed X-ray intensity correlation techniques, such as intensity correlation measurements of fluorescence and spontaneous undulator radiation for...
We designed a new radiometer to measure the absolute power of synchrotron radiation and free-electron laser in the wavelength range from the extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) to x-rays. The target measurable power range is from 1 mW to 1 W, which exceeds that of our former radiometer (a compact radiometer) of 0.01 mW to 150 mW. The new radiometer is directly mounted on a vacuum flange cooled with a...
1. General information
X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) pave the way towards new and highly exciting experiments in the fields of X-ray imaging and spectroscopy [1,2]. They allow accessing ultrafast and non-linear processes on the nanoscale. However, the stochastic nature of the lasing process causes strong shot-to-shot fluctuations in intensity and spectral composition, which...
