Abstract

The development of compact X-ray sources is a key application of laser-plasma-based electron acceleration, producing femtosecond X-ray pulses that are bright, collimated, and partially coherent. These sources can deliver photon fluxes exceeding 10<sup>11</sup> photons per shot, with further enhancement possible using high-repetition-rate, high-power lasers, offering complementary capabilities to large-scale facilities like synchrotrons and XFELs. Although their potential in the material and biological sciences is still emerging, it underscores the need for user-oriented X-ray beamlines. We update the results from the recently commissioned ELI Gammatron Beamline, to support fundamental physics research and advanced applications.
