Abstract

A beamline for the x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) of SPring-8 Angstrom Compact free electron LAser (SACLA) provides hard x-ray pulses in the range 4.5–19.5 keV. Its optical system in an optics hutch delivers a pink beam below 15 keV with either of two double-mirror systems or a monochromatic beam with a double-crystal monochromator. These XFEL beams are used for various types of measurement at experimental stations, e.g. x-ray diffraction, coherent diffraction imaging, x-ray spectroscopy and pump-and-probe measurement. The experimental stations consist of experimental hutches and control stations, and a femtosecond optical laser which is synchronized with XFEL pulses. Photon diagnostics have been performed for measuring radiation parameters in a shot-by-shot manner.
