L2S-I: Instruments for the LCLS-II

The LCLS-II project will deliver a high rep rate (up to 1 MHz) beam to the Near Experimental Hall (NEH) of the LCLS facility. To utilize the capabilities of this new beam, LCLS is building three new instruments comprised of five end stations. These five end stations require 16 x-ray optics systems. Of the 16 systems, 13 are new designs and three will utilize existing hardware with a retrofit.

This talk will give an overview of the new layout of the NEH and the instruments. It will then cover the x-ray optics systems along with some of the more stringent design requirements and difficult challenges. Finally, it will cover the design approach and current state of the design of the x-ray optics systems.
