The authors consider the effects of a finite electron energy spread and of a tapered undulator on the optical mode evolution in free electron laser oscillators. They find that the sideband instability at high optical powers for monoenergetic, untapered cases is suppressed by tapering but not by an energy spread. They explain these results in terms of the synchrotron oscillations of the electrons.
