NRL (Naval Research Laboratory) FEL (Free Electron Laser) program. Final report 29 December 1982-29 June 1984

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6242298
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Free Electron Laser (FEL) program proposed to use the NRL Electron Linear studies. Previous work by KM Sciences had concentrated on the evaluation of the upgrades needed on the entire facility to meet the needs of the FEL program. These had included injection electronics, injection hardware, accelerating structures, beam transport alignment, and the required additional deflection systems. The continuing work reported herein focuses on the design of a new injection system, beam quality evaluation, and on the design of an energy and phase analysis systems for the resultant electron beam. A computer ray-tracing program describing the interaction of the electron beam with the FEL wiggler structure will also be discussed.
