Laguerre-Gaussian modes in the free electron laser
In a free electron laser (FEL) system, knowing the optical beam characteristics is of great importance. A beam may be comprised of higher-order modes due to the interaction with the electron beam, or from non-ideal operational conditions such as mirror distortions and misalignments, or from imperf...
