Study of the microbunching instability in single-pass systemsusing a direct 2D Vlasov solver

Journal Article · · Physical Review Special Topics
OSTI ID:932489

We apply a recently developed Vlasov solver to the study ofthemicrobunching instability generated by shot noise in the beamdeliverysystems of x-ray Free Electron Lasers (FELs). We discusstwo latticespresently under consideration for the FEL FERMI project at Elettra andshow that at least one of the two lattices appears capable of deliveringa beam with the desired quality in the longitudinal phasespace.
