Abstract A next-generation signature facility based on multi-probe capabilities is being planned at Los Alamos. This new facility will enable the first in a new generation of game-changing scientific facilities for the materials community. The new Matter-Radiation Interactions in Extremes (MaRIE) facility will be used to discover and design the advanced materials needed to meet 21st-century national security and energy-security challenges to develop next-generation materials that will perform predictably in extreme environments. The MaRIE facility will include a new 12-GeV electron linac using a state-of-the-art electron photoinjector and superconducting accelerator technology to drive a 42-keV XFEL to generate x rays of unprecedented flux and quality, coupled with the existing proton-beam capabilities of the LANSCE proton linac, new experimental halls, and new materials fabrication/characterization facilities. A description of this new facility, its requirements, and planned uses and capabilities will be presented. Status of the project will also be presented.
