  • Abstract
    Emerging technologies are critically evaluated for their feasibility in future light sources. We consider both new technologies for electron beam generation and acceleration suitable for X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs), as well as alternative photon generation technologies including the relatively mature inverse Compton scattering and laser high-harmonic generation. Laser-driven plasma wakefield acceleration is the most advanced of the novel acceleration technologies, and may be suitable to generate electron beams for X-ray FELs in a decade. We provide research recommendations to achieve the needed parameters for driving future light sources, including necessary advances in laser technology.
