The effects of field errors on low-gain free-electron lasers

The effects of random wiggler magnetic field errors on low-gain free-electron lasers (FELs) are examined analytically and numerically through the use of ensemble averaging techniques. Wiggler field errors perturb the electron beam as it propagates and lead to a random walk of the beam centroid, variations in the axial beam energy, and deviations in the relative phase of the electrons in the ponderomotive wave. The random walk of the beam centroid and the consequent variations in the axial beam energy are discussed. The deviations in the relative phase resulting from the field errors are examined. The effect of the field errors on the FEL gain in the low-gain regime is determined. The benefits of beam steering are analyzed, and addition methods for reducing the detrimental effects of field errors are discussed

Simulation of free-electron lasers in the presence of correlatedmagnetic field errors

The authors address the numerical simulation of field errors that possess statistical correlations. The inevitable errors of actual magnetic wigglers yield a degraded performance of the free-electron laser (FEL) with respect to the performance obtained from ideally modeled magnetic wigglers. The impact of these errors has been theoretically and computationally investigated for simple error modes, in which the field errors have uniform or sinusoidal spatial extent and amplitudes that are statistically independent for each magnet pole piece. These simple models have been recently extended to include more complicated spatial structures and statistically correlated field errors in the analysis of FEL performance. Numerical simulations of the FEL are presented that verify the analytic predictions of the recently extended model     

New instabilities of free-electron laser with an axial guide magnetic field

In this paper, the unperturbed orbits, their stable conditions and the single-pass gain of a free-electron laser have been treated with a single-particle theory to show the existence of a couple of new instabilities and moreover, to discuss their effects. Numerical analyses reveal that the new instabilities will probably affect the operation of free-electron laser when the guide field increases and get into the vicinity of its stability boundary.     

Finite-temperature effects in free-electron lasers

The effect of energy spread on the gain of a dense-beam free-electron laser amplifier is analyzed. The formalism includes collective effects and allows for the use of an arbitrary distribution function. The dispersion relation is solved numerically. Besides broadening of the spectrum and decrease in gain, lowering of the central emission frequency with energy spread is observed. An initial-value problem is formulated and numerically solved, with power computed as a function of distance. The relative contributions of the different modes when temperature changes are analyzed. In particular, the competing effects of a decrease in coupling loss with temperature together with Landau damping are investigated.     

The effect of wiggler imperfections on nonlinear harmonicgeneration in free-electron lasers

The generation of harmonics through a nonlinear mechanism driven by bunching at the fundamental has sparked interest in using this process as a path toward an X-ray free-electron laser (FEL). An important issue in this regard is the sensitivity of the nonlinear harmonic generation to wiggler imperfections. Typically, linear instabilities in FELs are characterized by increasing sensitivity to both electron beam and wiggler quality with increasing harmonic number. However, since the nonlinear harmonic generation mechanism is driven by the growth of the fundamental, the sensitivity of the nonlinear harmonic mechanism is not severely greater than that of the fundamental. In this paper, we study the effects of wiggler imperfections on the nonlinear harmonics in a 1.5-Å FEL, and show that the decline in the third harmonic emission with increasing levels of wiggler imperfections roughly tracks that of the fundamental     

Nonlinear harmonic generation in free-electron lasers

A three-dimensional nonlinear simulation code to treat multiple frequencies simultaneously is described and used to study nonlinear harmonic generation in free-electron lasers (FELs). Strong nonlinear harmonic gain is found where the gain length varies inversely with the harmonic number. Substantial power levels are found in the harmonics. The odd harmonics are favored with generally higher power levels since a planar wiggler geometry is employed; however, the second harmonic exhibits substantial power as well. The analysis is relevant to the emission expected from self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) free-electron laser schemes     

Intensity saturation mechanism in free-electron lasers

It is shown that the free-electron laser (FEL) exhibits a scaling of the gain saturation versus the intensity analogous to that of conventional lasers. The concept of FEL intensity saturation is introduced and its link to the maximum output intensity is discussed     

Suppression of feedback oscillations in free-electron lasers

The suppression of feedback oscillations in a free-electron laser (FEL) oscillator has been investigated. It is found, through numerical simulation that a narrow attenuating strip inserted in a waveguide will not reduce FEL performance at the desired frequency and will attenuate feedback oscillations. Simulations are presented for a 5-mm-wavelength FEL with a 40-dB attenuator inserted in the interaction region
