Intrabeam scattering in high brightness electron linacs

We studied analytically and with particle tracking the intrabeam scattering of a high brightness electron beam in a linac. We found that intrabeam scattering plays no significant role in the microbunching instability that develops in linacs for free electron lasers. A partial damping of the instabil...
