Frequency chirped self-amplified spontaneous-emission free-electron lasers

We present a statistical analysis of the temporal and spectral properties of self-amplified spontaneous emission from an energy-chirped electron beam passing through a long undulator. It is found that the coherence time is independent of the chirp, while the range of spectral coherence is linearly p...
