Objective: |
Recently, the BESAC Panel on Novel Coherent Light Sources, chaired by Steve
Leone, has recommended the development of a hard x-ray source user facility
because of its most exciting potential for innovative science. It is clear that
the science opportunities at such light sources are only at a formative stage,
and the promise can be only met by a strong interaction between experts from the
laser community, the synchrotron radiation user community, and the source
developers. This workshop is planned to bring about such an interaction with an
objective to begin a year-long process to define scientific opportunities for
novel coherent light sources, leading to a definitive scientific case document.

Working Group Activities: |
The group activities will include half-a-day plenary session to set the stage
for the scientific discussions. The groups will address specific techniques and
science on the second day centered around the following topics:
- Full transverse coherence
- Short pulses
- High x-ray photon degeneracy
- Sample degradation by high energy x-ray pulses
- X-ray optics
