SHINE 2nd Technical Advisory Committee Meeting
Multi-Function Hall
ShanghaiTech University
The Shanghai HIgh repetitioN rate XFEL and Extreme light facility (SHINE) is a next-generation X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) under construction in Shanghai, China. Launched in 2018, SHINE is based on an 8 GeV continuous-wave (CW) superconducting linac and optimized to support two undulator lines delivering high-brightness XFEL pulses in the first phase.
Following design optimizations, SHINE is expected to cover a photon energy range of 0.2–13 keV together with a 50 PW laser by around 2027, enabling a wide array of applications in ultrafast and high-resolution X-ray science.
The second SHINE Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) Meeting will be held on-site in Shanghai from October 22 to 24, 2025. Building on the first TAC meeting held online in April 2024, this meeting will focus on:
l Progress in construction and system integration
l Commissioning strategies and timeline
l Key engineering milestones achieved
l Existing technical challenges
l Early science planning and preparation for first-user experiments
The TAC plays a crucial role in guiding SHINE's development, helping ensure its success as a world-leading XFEL facility.
