Description

The SASE2 undulator of the European XFEL is equipped with a fully operational Hard X-Ray Self-Seeding (HXRSS) system. HXRSS pulses are delivered on a regular basis to users [1] and together with the high rep-rate capabilities of European XFEL linac allowed already for innovative applications [2]. Recently we have delivered HXRSS with pulse energy up to 1.4 mJ at 9 keV and investigated different methods for bandwidth and background controls. In this work, presented on behalf of the HXRSS team at the European XFEL and DESY, we will review its status, current capabilities and outlook.
