History of LEBRA 1994 : The FEL project was started. 1995 : The construction of the linac was started. 1997 : Completion of the linac & the undulator 1998 : Success in acceleration of electron beams 2000 : Design of the PXR generator was started. 2001 : The PXR generator was constructed. First lasing of FEL 2003 : Operation of the PXR generator will be started. LEBRA
Why PXR ? • Variable wavelength X-ray source • Monochromaticity • Directivity • Electron energy limitation ~ 100 Me. V undulator / wiggler • Beam destruction : no problem LEBRA
Weak points of PXR as X-ray source • Emission direction changes as the wavelength varies. Double-crystal system • X-ray yield is not intense. X-ray focusing system LEBRA
