Linear accelerator-based free-electron lasers (FELs) are the leading source of fully coherent
X-rays with ultra-high peak powers and ultra-short pulse lengths. Current X-ray FEL facilities …

A new scientific frontier opened in 2009 with the start of operations of the world's first x-ray
free-electron laser (FEL), the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), at SLAC National …

Pressure has long been recognized as a fundamental thermodynamic variable but its
application was previously limited by the available pressure vessels and probes. The …

Motivated by the current high interest in the field of warm dense matter research, in this
article we review the uniform electron gas (UEG) at finite temperature and over a broad …

X-ray crystallography provides the vast majority of macromolecular structures, but the
success of the method relies on growing crystals of sufficient size. In conventional …

Abstract The recently commissioned Linac Coherent Light Source is an X-ray free-electron
laser at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. It produces coherent soft and hard X-rays …

Abstract The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is an X-ray free-electron laser at the SLAC
National Accelerator Laboratory, which has been operating since 2009 for a wide range of …

With intensities 108–1010 times greater than other laboratory sources, X-ray free-electron
