Title: Harmonic generation mechanisms in short-wavelength free-electron lasers

Conference ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1117/12.18620· OSTI ID:7248103

The physical mechanisms that contribute to harmonic radiation in free-electron laser systems are examined. Mathematical models for the spontaneous and coherent-spontaneous emission in plane-polarized wigglers are given. How these models are used to perform numerical simulations is discussed. Modifications of the models to incorporate non-ideal free-electron laser effects are reviewed. 19 refs., 4 figs.
