Six “day-one” scientific instruments
Hard X-rays
SPB:
Ultrafast Coherent Diffraction Imaging of
Single Particles, Clusters, and Biomolecules
 Structure determination of single particles: atomic
clusters, bio-molecules, virus particles, cells.
MID: Materials Imaging & Dynamics
 Structure determination of nano-devices and
dynamics at the nanoscale.
FXE: Femtosecond X-ray Experiments
 Time-resolved investigations of the dynamics of
solids, liquids, gases
Soft x-rays
HED:

High Energy Density Matter
Investigation of matter under extreme conditions
using hard X-ray FEL radiation, e.g. probing dense
plasmas
SQS: Small Quantum Systems
Investigation of atoms, ions, molecules and
clusters in intense fields and non-linear
phenomena
SCS: Soft x-ray Coherent Scattering/Spectroscopy
Electronic and real structure, dynamics of nanosystems and of non-reproducible biological objects
