Abstract
This manual on the theory of Compton free electron lasers examines the following topics: a simplified approach to the free electron laser (FEL) aimed at framing this device (basic ingredients - accelerator which provides a high energy and quality electron beam, the undulator consisting of a series of suitably arranged N-S magnetic poles, the optical cavity for operation in the oscillator configuration) within the context of coherent sources; spontaneous emission by relativistic electrons moving in an undulator magnet (general considerations on the characteristics of UM radiation; spectral brightness calculation of undulator magnet radiation; inhomogeneous broadening); the low, high and very high gain regimes; gain degradation induced by inhomogeneous broadening; an analytical approach to transverse mode dynamics; numerical results for a transversally uniform electron beam; longitudinal dynamics; lethargy and quantitative analysis relative to the FEL oscillator regime and the pulse propagation problem; the FEL saturation process; a simplified view of storage ring dynamics.
