Abstract :
The LCLS is a novel high-brightness X-ray source designed to operate in the 300-400 eV range. In contrast to conventional synchrotron radiation sources, its output pulses will be characterized by unprecedented levels of brevity and peak power. In this paper we present recently developed beam line layouts and design features intended to optimize the delivery of the LCLS photons to various experimental stations
