Next Generation Instrumentation: LAMP~--~\emph{L}CLS~-~\emph{A}SG~-~\emph{M}ichigan~-~\emph{P}roject for Novel Science with the LCLS~FEL*

We are designing and building the next generation multi-purpose instrumentation especially adapted to accommodate unique large-area, single-photon counting pnCCD detectors together with advanced many-particle ion and electron imaging spectrometers (reaction microscope, REMI; velocity map imaging, VMI; magnetic bottle) for simultaneous detection of scattered and fluorescent photons and charged particles in experiments at the LCLS FEL. The new end-station presents improvements to the existing CAMP [1] instrument, such as extended range and flexibility of detector positioning and control, better vacuum level, more convenient sample changing procedure, better temperature control, more versatility with pump-probe laser in- and out-coupling, etc. The instrument will be available to any scientist and is planned to be commissioned in the second half of 2012.\\[4pt] [1] L.
