The upgrade of the Advanced Light Source is coming as soon as next summer, and will provide a fully coherent beam to push the limits of x-ray science. Antoine is the optical scientist for the new ALS-U insertion device beamlines, and most of the components have been received already, and we will tackle these questions:

• What is ALS-U and what is coherence?

• ALS-U new beamlines

• -New technologies developed for ALS-U
