LUX is a design study for a facility to
perform time resolved experiments
• Timescales of the order of an atomic vibrational period
1 Å/vsound ~ 100 fs
• Apply existing x-ray techniques to ultrafast dynamics experiments
• Combining diffraction and spectroscopy (nuclear positions and
electronic, chemical or structural probes)
Time-resolved x-ray diffraction Time-resolved EXAFS, NEXAFS, surface EXAFS

• Access new science in the x-ray regime

K edge energy
• Time dynamics parameters have not been widely exploited in the
x–ray, mostly due to lack of sources
John Corlett, February 19, 2004
We propose a facility for ultrafast dynamics
which is driven by scientific requirements
• Pulse duration 10-200 fs, variable, or shorter
• High flux per pulse ~106-1013 (ph/pulse/0.1%BW)
• Broad photon range 20 eV to 12 keV
• Tunability fully tunable on each beamline
• Repetition rate 10 kHz to match pump-probe experiments
• Synchronization 10’s fs pump laser – probe x-ray
• Polarization lhc, rhc soft x-ray / linear hard x-ray
• In addition to accelerator systems, the facility will include multiple short-
pulse laser systems
– Master oscillator
– Photocathode laser
– Harmonic generation seed laser
– Beamline endstation pump lasers
John Corlett, February 19, 2004
LUX based on a recirculating linac provides
a refined source of ultrafast x-ray pulses
• RF photocathode gun produces high-quality electron beam
• 2-3 mm-mrad, 1 nC, 30 ps, ± 20 keV
• Compress beam from the injector to 3 ps
• Accelerate in multiple passes through linac
• 1-3 GeV beam generates x-rays
• 10-100 fs duration
• Recirculating configuration
offers flexibility
• Manipulation of bunch
longitudinal phase space on
each pass
• Multiple experiemntal
beamlines in each pass

Shot noise effects
• Due to high input power to modulator stages, effects from random e-beam
shot noise microbunching appear small
– essentially no growth of bunching in absence of seed signal
– in presence of coherent seed, shot noise leads to small phase and amplitude
time variations
– db2½ ~ 8 10-4 « b

– At 1 nm, dP(t)/ P ~ 5 10-3
