abstract = {Growing interests in ultra-hard X-rays are pushing forward
the frontier of commissioning the European X-ray
Free-Electron Laser (XFEL) for routine operation towards the
sub-ångström regime, where a photon energy of 25 keV (0.5
Å) and above is desired. Such X-rays allow for larger
penetration depths and enable the investigation of materials
in highly absorbing environments. Delivering the requested
X-rays to user experiments is of crucial importance for the
XFEL development. Unique capabilities of the European XFEL
are formed by combining a high energy linac and the long
variable-gap undulator systems for generating intense X-rays
at 25 keV and pushing the limit even further to 30 keV.
However, the FEL performance relies on achievable electron
bunch qualities. Low-emittance electron bunch production,
and the associated start-to-end modelling of beam physics
thus becomes a prerequisite to dig into the XFEL potentials.
Here, we present the obtained simulation results from a
virtual commissioning of the XFEL for the user experiments
at 25 keV and beyond, including the optimized electron bunch
qualities and corresponding FEL lasing performance.
Experimental results at 30 keV from the first test run are
presented.},
