Commissioning
The Near Experimental Hall is currently under construction, to create additional
space for hutches and support labs. Recent storms may delay the start of Run 15

12-month shutdown (2 new hutches, and upgrade of 3 existing)
• 9 instruments available in total for LCLS-II
• Phased delivery over 2020 – 2023, dependent on resources

LCLS-II-HE (“High Energy”) received Critical Decision-0
(DOE’s approval of Mission Need) in December 2016
This extends the peak

Analysis and Computing Update
Easier/faster analysis: write code that looks like it runs on 1 CPU, but run (in
real-time) on as many CPUs as you want, producing small HDF5 files:
• https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/PSDM/MPI+Parallelization
• “FFB” real-time analysis faster because spinning disks have been replaced
with flash
• Jupyterhub now supported for “in browser” python analysis: • https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/PSDM/JupyterHub
• Psana is now a package in the world-standard “conda” Python environment: • https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/PSDMInternal/Conda+Release+System

Analysis update: Support for Crystallography/SPI
Uses graphical tool “psocake”:
Interactively tune peak finding and indexing parameters
Interactively optimize detector position in 3D space
Easy masking of bad pixels / ROI
Quickly jump to interesting events by clicking on a 1D small data plot
Launch peak finding/indexing on arbitrary number of cores using MPI
