From the LCLS Project Requirements document:
The Project scope includes
 facilities for production and transport of a bright, high-current electron beam
 an undulator system in which the electron beam will generate the x-ray beam
 facilities for transport, diagnostics and optical manipulation of the x-ray beam
 endstations and related facilities for x-ray experiments
 conventional facilities for the accelerator systems and x-ray experiments
 a central lab office building to house support staff and researchers
This talk will present a discussion of the prototype x-ray optics and prototype
x-ray detectors that will be built for LCLS, and their basic requirements

Functions of the x-ray optics
Confinement (masks, slits, local apertures)
Intensity attenuation (gas attenuator, solid attenuator)
Focusing (K-B mirror, zone plate)
Spectral filter (mirror low-pass filter, monochromator)
Beam direction (flipper mirrors)
Temporal filter (pulse split/delay)

X-ray detectors for LCLS
LCLS presents unique challenges for detectors, requiring significant R&D
Signal comes in large pulses (many photons)
Pulses come at 120Hz

LCLS 2-d x-ray detector
Detector technologies
CCD
Diode pixel array
Relatively mature technology
Needs R&D to reach 120 Hz
Tremendous potential
120 Hz no problem
Not commercial
Needs lots of R&D

LCLS 2-d x-ray detector
LCLS detector R&D plan
Begin with 1-year R&D contract ($100-200k)
Investigate pixel array detector
Consider investigating another technology simultaneously
After 1 year, decide whether and how to continue
Goal: experiment-ready detector by 9-30-08
Backup: CCD detector running at 10 Hz
