An X-ray Free Electron Laser Oscillator: Promises and Challenges
(Dr. Kwang-Je Kim/ANL)
【Abstract】Having seen proof that FEL principles work for hard x-rays for lCLS, it is time to seriously consider more advanced hard x-ray sources. An x-ray FEL oscillator (XFELO) promises to provide an extremely narrow bandwidth of a few meV (corresponding to 10-7 in relative bandwidth) with an average brightness higher by several orders of magnitude than, and peak brightness comparable to, the SASE XFEL. These capabilities will provide breakthrough opportunities in areas complementary to SASE XFELs as well as drastically enhance the capabilities of techniques developed at third-generation synchrotron radiation facilities-particularly those requiring high coherence and high spectral purity. The main technological challenges for XFELO are: an injector providing a continuous sequence of ultralow emittance, low intensity electron bunches at a few MHz repetition rate; high quality diamond crystals serving as the main mirrors for x-ray cavity; high-reflectivity grazing incidence, curved mirrors for controlling the transverse mode profile; tight tolerances for angular stability of the optical elements. We will present progresses in conceptual and experimental efforts to advance the state-of-the-arts in these topics.

A simulation of XFELO operating in a scheme of velocity bunching
(Dr. Nobuyuki Nishimori /JAEA)
【Abstract】 An X-ray synchrotron light source, a multi-GeV ERL, is one of the targets of our Japanese collaboration towards future ERL light sources. As an option of the multi-GeV ERL, we consider an X-ray FEL oscillator (XFEL-O) to produce hard X-ray pulses with excellent temporal coherence. In this study, we present simulation results of the XFEL-O such as FEL lasing including spectral narrowing and nonlinear phase shift at Bragg reflectors. We also propose a scheme of velocity bunching in an ERL main linac for X-FELO operation. The velocity bunching brings significant enhancement of the small-signal gain and an X-FELO at 0.1 nm is feasible with a 5-GeV electron beam from the ERL light source planned in Japan.

The idea how to measure dynamical charge susceptibility combined with X-ray and Neutron inelastic scattering
(Dr. Jun-ichiro Mizuki /JAEA)
【Abstract】It is well-known that the inelastic X-ray scattering (IXS)intensity is directly related to the dynamical charge susceptibility. Thespectrum of IXS in the energy between meV and a few 100meV, which is important energy range to investigate the physical properties in materials, has been explained so far with a contribution of oscillatingions, "phonons". Of course this is not correct. The spectrum should have the information on dynamical dielectric function which consists of not only phonons, but also polarization properties of electrons in a field of rigid lattice. The talk is addressed to the idea how to get the information on dynamical electric function by a combination of x-ray and neutron inelastic scattering methods.
