            Funding: Work was supported in part by the Italian Ministry of University and Research under grants FIRB-RBAP045JF2 and FIRB-RBAP06AWK3. This article describes the design goals of FERMI@Elettra, reports on the goals achieved so far and shows how the facility development has been driven by the new research frontier of ultra-fast, extreme ultra-violet and soft X-ray science. The commissioning phases and first experience with user pilot experiments are presented and discussed.  |

| THPC100 | Full Temporal Reconstruction using an Advanced Longitudinal Diagnostic at the SPARC FEL | 3119 | 
  | 
        ||
| The Production of ultra-short (sub 100 fs) single-spike radiation possessing full longitudinal coherence from a free-electron laser (FEL) has been the subject of intense study. A Frequency-Resolved Optical Gating (FROG) diagnostic has been developed and tested at UCLA, which has the capability of providing a longitudinal reconstruction of these ultra-fast pulses. This paper reports the results of the application of the diagnostic at the SPARC FEL facility. | ||
