Abstract The Matter-Radiation Interactions in Extremes (MaRIE) facility is intended to probe and control the time-dependent properties of materials under extreme conditions. At its core, the “MaRIE 1.0” X-FEL is being designed to deliver pulse trains of ~10¹⁰ 42 keV photons, with a minimum bunch spacing of 2.4 ns, enabling time-dependent studies particularly of mesoscale phenomena. The X-FEL accelerator is also intended to deliver a series of 2 nC electron bunches to enable electron radiography concurrently with the X-ray pulse train, so as to provide multi-probe capability to MaRIE. In 2014, the reference design for the MaRIE X-FEL 12 GeV driver linac was changed from an S-band normal-conducting to an L-band superconducting linac to accommodate pulse trains up to 100 μs in duration. This paper does not present a complete solution for the MaRIE linac design; rather it describes our current reference design, achieved parameters, areas of concern and paths towards mitigation of identified issues.
