Longitudinal dispersion of orbital angular momentum modes in high-gain free-electron lasers
The physical effects of optical mode dispersion in the electron beam of a free-electron laser are investigated for modes that carry orbital angular momentum. The analysis is performed using a derived equivalence between two different formulations that describe the radiation fields in the linear regi...
