Description
It is a critical challenge to meet the requirements for XFEL operation modes and photon properties across different undulator lines simultaneously. We propose a solution to this challenge by introducing a dipole-kicker combination in the bunch compressors, allowing for the variation of electron bunch length in continuous-wave XFEL facilities driven by a superconducting linac. Through start-to-end simulations using parameters from the Shanghai high-repetition-rate XFEL and extreme light facility, we demonstrate the feasibility of this technique.
