Abstract: Bragg diffraction from crystals is widely used to select a very narrow spectral range of x-ray pulses. The diffracted signal can be used to calibrate the photon energy, a fact that can be exploited very effectively at x-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs). This work describes three crystal-based methods used to this goal at a major x-ray FEL facility, the European XFEL. These methods, which have a wide applicability, have been developed in relation to the hard x-ray self-seeding setup installed at the SASE2 undulator. They are fast and straightforward to implement since they are based on techniques for extracting and identifying crystal reflections from standard diagnostic raw data while still delivering few electronvolts resolution.
