Shanghai X-ray FEL User Facility Zhangjiang Integrated National Science Center was approved by the central government in Feb. 2016. Advanced scientific and technological infrastructure will be established in the center. The Shanghai X-ray FEL user facility is an important part of the center. The user facility will be constructed based on the test facility with some major upgrade. Parameters Undulator I Undulator II Unit E-beam energy 1.5 GeV Bunch charge ~0.5 ~0.25 nC Nor. Emittance ≤1.5 umrad Peak current ≥700 A FEL wavelength ~3 ~2 nm FEL pulse length ~100 ~300 fs FEL peak power ≥100 MW
Linac upgrade : 1 S band, 4 C band and 1 X band RF station added Radiator upgrade: 7 undulators units added

Test facility for hard X-ray FEL R&D The SDUV-FEL will be shutdown this summer and some components will be moved to SXFEL. A project proposal on X band system R&D should be approved soon by the Minister of Science and Technology. We hope to build an new test facility on RF gun test, X band system test, beam measurement and manipulation, which could be used to evaluate new methods and techniques for the hard X-ray FEL facility.
