MOPA FEL Stanford experiment: Simple analysis

Abstract

This paper analyzes the results of the FEL (free electron laser) MOPA (master oscillator power amplifier) experiment recently performed at Stanford. A one dimensional model is used and the observed violation of the Madey`s theorem is quantitatively reproduced. This note, albeit based on a one dimensional analysis, supports the hypothesis that the observed deviations from Madey`s theorem may be essentially due to high gain effects. However, since the inhomogeneous broadening effects strongly suppress the high gain contributions, it can also be argued that most of the observed phenomena are due to the interplay between the high gain dynamics and the modifications induced by the beam energy spread.
