The high-energy electron beam from the SLAC linac, in conjunction with the bunch compression of the existing SLC collider arcs, provides the opportunity for an extremely short pulse spontaneous emission x-ray source with high brightness. Experiments at the SLC have already demonstrated peak currents of 10 kA at 46 GeV. The addition of a relatively simple undulator in the reverse-bend section of the north arc can generate x-ray radiation of wavelength < 1 {angstrom} with peak brightness higher than any existing source. This could be used for testing x-ray diagnostics and to gain experience with short pulse x-ray experiments as a precursor to high brightness experiments with the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). In addition, experiments with a short electron bunch, relevant to the LCLS and the Next Linear Collider (NLC) projects, might be carried out.
