Description
Externally seeded FELs deliver fully coherent radiation down to the soft X-Rays with high shot-to-shot stability. They are, however, limited in repetition rate by the available seed laser systems and highest achievable harmonic.
Cavity-based FELs, on the other hand, have the potential to generate fully coherent FEL radiation at the maximum repetition rate supported by superconducting accelerators.
The XRAY Project was aimed at setting up such a cavity-based high-gain FEL oscillator at 13.5 nm wavelength and 3 MHz repetition rate. In this contribution, we report on the experimental campaign carried out at the seeding infrastructure at FLASH.
