Electron-bunch compression using a dynamical nonlinearity correction for a compact x-ray free-electron laser
We propose a novel method to achieve a highly brilliant electron bunch with a peak current of several kA in an x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) by efficiently correcting nonlinearity of the bunch-compression system. In this method, a second-order positive energy chirp is imprinted to the electron bu...
