Single-shot third-harmonic spectral diagnostics for tender X-ray FEL pulses using a bent crystal spectrometer

Third-harmonic spectral monitoring with an existing bent-crystal spectrometer provides single-shot bandwidth diagnostics and real-time machine tuning for tender X-ray FEL operation, and can be made non-invasive when combined with a suitable beam-sampling grating.

Ultrafast time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering setup on the FemtoMAX beamline

The feasibility is demonstrated of performing time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering measurements with picosecond temporal resolution on the FemtoMAX beamline at the MAX IV Laboratory in Sweden.

Reducing acquisition time and radiation damage: data-driven subsampling for spectro-microscopy

Data-driven sparse acquisition in spectro-microscopy reduces acquisition time and radiation dose while preserving information.

Accepted 19 June 2026

Fine-tuning ab initio XANES spectra calculations using the Bayesian optimization algorithm

A Bayesian optimization technique is used to tune the FEFF and FDMNES packages and to improve matching between theoretical and experimental spectra. The tests were performed on monometallic Ni, Fe and Pd K-edge XANES spectra using several different spectrum similarity metrics.

A real-time correction method for sample drift in STXM based on Fourier transform image registration


Accepted 17 June 2026

The prototype DynamiX camera system – a high-frame-rate high-dynamic-range hard X-ray integrating detector for fourth-generation synchrotrons

This paper presents the first results from the DynamiX X-ray imaging detector developed by the UK's Science and Technology Facilities Council for a new generation of photon light sources. Operating at a continuous frame rate of 534 kHz and with a per-pixel per-frame dynamic range of roughly five orders of magnitude, this work is the first step in delivering a transformative new imaging technology.

A high-energy X-ray beamline for materials science research at SPring-8: BL15XU

The Japanese synchrotron facility SPring-8 has recently relaunched BL15XU as a high-energy X-ray beamline for materials science research. A comprehensive description of the technical details and science cases is presented.

Accepted 17 June 2026

Ultrafast time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy at FemtoMAX beamline

A new setup for femtosecond resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy with energy ranging from 2 to 15 keV is established.

Accepted 16 June 2026

A beam direction cross-vessel metrology method and error analysis for ptychography setup at HEPS ID09

A beamline-direction cross-vessel metrology method and error analysis for ptychography setup at HEPS ID09 is proposed and implemented. A 12.3 nm reconstruction resolution of ptychography demonstrates the validity of metrology.
