1. The Elettra 2.0 Beamlines.

Author

Gregoratti, Luca, Lizzit, Silvano, Karantzoulis, Emanuel, and Franciosi, Alfonso

Subjects
*SPECKLE interference, *SYNCHROTRON radiation, *HARD X-rays, *ATOMIC force microscopy techniques
Abstract

The Elettra synchrotron radiation facility in Trieste, Italy has been operating since 1994 and is currently the only facility operating at 2.0 or 2.4 GeV. Plans are underway to construct a new facility, Elettra 2.0, which will have improved capabilities and a wider range of experiments. The project was approved in 2017 and is expected to be operational in 2027, offering diverse beamlines for various energy ranges and advanced imaging and spectroscopy techniques. The construction will include 12 new beamlines and upgrades to existing ones. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract

Rassegna Stampa on line: Dal Miur 170 mln per Elettra 2.0. https://www.elettra.eu/comunicazione/news/rassegna-stampa-elettra-2-0.html 4 E. Karantzoulis et al., Elettra 2.0 Technical Design Report. ST/M-21/01, Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste, internal document, 2021. Elettra was one of the first third-generation synchrotrons in the world, and the first soft X-ray storage ring in Europe, having begun user operation in 1994. Storage ring design Elettra 2.0 will have the same circumference as Elettra, 259.2 m, and occupy the same building as the present storage ring. [Extracted from the article]

3. WHAT THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL X-RAY LASER WILL DO FOR SCIENCE.

Author

Lea, Robert

Subjects
*X-ray lasers, *QUANTUM theory, *COHERENCE (Optics), *NUCLEAR reactions, *HARD X-rays
Abstract

The article discusses the world's most powerful x-ray laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) II, which is located at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, California. The LCLS-II laser can produce a million x-ray pulses per second, making it 10,000 times brighter than its predecessor. This powerful x-ray laser will enable scientists to capture snapshots of reactions happening on an atomic level, revolutionizing our understanding of biology, quantum physics, and materials science. The LCLS-II operates by accelerating free electrons to near the speed of light and emitting x-rays with the same wavelengths. The upgrade to LCLS has cost around $1.1 billion and planning has taken around 12 years. [Extracted from the article]
