Estimate of free electron laser gain length in the presence of electron beam collective effects
We analytically estimated the three-dimensional free electron laser (FEL) power gain length’s increase due to the collective effects of an ultrarelativistic electron beam, namely, geometric transverse wakefield, coherent synchrotron radiation, and microbunching instability. We showed that the gain l...
