China's SHINE hard X-ray free-electron laser achieves first light

Briefing by News4U · First published

SHINE produced its first free-electron laser light using a 4 GeV superconducting linac and 18 undulators, a key step toward full operation by end-2027.

ITHome reported that the SHINE hard X-ray free-electron laser facility achieved its first light, using a 4 GeV continuous-wave superconducting linear accelerator to drive 18 undulators, marking a major milestone toward completion by the end of 2027. [1]
