X-ray sources driven by femtosecond lasers with high peak power provide compact alternatives to large-scale facilities such as synchrotrons and X-ray Free electron lasers. ELI Beamlines facility is devoted to providing various beamlines of laser-driven X-rays and accelerated particles to the user community [1]. While the X-rays sources driven by kHz lasers such as high-order harmonic beamline...
The EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB facility is the beam driven pillar of the EuPRAXIA project which is expected to provide by the end of 2028 the first European Research Infrastructure dedicated to demonstrating usability of plasma accelerators delivering high brightness beams up to 1-5 GeV for users.
Among the possible EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB applications the realization of a short wavelength Free Electron...
DAΦNE-Light is the INFN-Frascati National Laboratories (LNF) synchrotron radiation facility. The LNF have a longstanding tradition of using synchrotron radiation for interdisciplinary studies that started with the ADONE accelerator and is now continuing with DAΦNE. Because of its low energy (510 Mev) and high electron current (higher than 1 A) DAΦNE provides a high photon flux also in the...
The EuPRAXIA Advanced Photon Sources (EuAPS) project, led by INFN in collaboration with CNR and the University of Rome Tor Vergata, foresees the construction of a laser-driven “betatron” X-ray user facility at the LNF SPARC_LAB laboratory [1]. EuAPS has received financial support from the Italian PNRR plan for the creation of a new research infrastructure.
While the EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB...
The European XFEL facility started operation in 2017 and provides 10 Hz trains of unpreceded high brilliance X-ray pulses at MHz repetition rate to seven different experimental end stations. Such unique beam delivery capabilities provide new research opportunities in numerous fields and namely Biology, Chemistry, Material Science but also Physics and Astrophysics. The megahertz operation...
The collaboration between INFN-Trieste, TIFPA, FBK, the Politecnico di Milano and Elettra-Sincrotrone Trieste over the past few years has led to the design, production and deployment of two state-of-the-art instruments that now equip the XRF/XAFS beamline of the SESAME synchrotron and the XAFS beamline of Elettra.
Both these instruments are 64-channels modular detection systems based on...
