Title: Lasing on higher harmonics

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6542682

Lasing at short wavelengths with an accelerator of modest energy can only be achieved with a wiggler of short period and high field operating, perhaps, at a high harmonic of the fundamental frequency. We discuss the characteristics of wigglers of this kind, designed to lase with harmonic numbers as large as fifty or so, emphasizing their gain, efficiency, and sensitivity to emittance and energy spread. 5 refs., 3 figs.
