| Publication Abstract: | A confluence of events motivates discussion of design options for hard x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) driver accelerators. Firstly, multiple superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) driven systems are coming online (European XFEL), in construction (LCLS-II, SCLF), or in design (MARIE); these provide increasing evidence of the transformational potential they offer for fundamental science with its concomitant benefits. Secondly, successful operation of 12 GeV CEBAF [1] validates use of recirculation in the design of high energy SRF linacs. Thirdly, advances in the analysis and control of various effects ? including coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) and the microbunching instability (?BI) ? have been recently achieved. Taken collectively, these developments offer opportunities to extend facility science reach, reduce cost, provide multiplicity (i.e., support numerous FELs operating over a range of wavelengths), and enhance scalability and upgradability (to higher powers and energies). We discuss the relationship amongst the various threads, and indicate how they inform design choices for the system architecture of an option for the UK-XFEL [2] ? that of a staged multi-user X-Ray FEL and nuclear physics facility based on a multi-pass recirculating SRF CW linac. | ||||||
