High efficiency tapered free-electron lasers with a prebunched electron beam

Journal Article Emma, C. ; Sudar, N. ; Musumeci, P. ; ... - Physical Review Accelerators and Beams

In this study we analyze the high gain, high efficiency tapered free-electron laser amplifier with a prebunched electron beam. Simple scaling laws are derived for the peak output power and extraction efficiency and verified using 1D simulations. These studies provide useful analytical expressions which highlight the benefits resulting from fine control of the initial conditions of the system, namely the initial electron beam bunching and input seed radiation. When time-dependent effects are included, the sideband instability is known to limit the radiation amplification due to particle detrapping. We discuss two different approaches to mitigate the sideband growth via 1-D timemore »« less

Terawatt x-ray free-electron-laser optimization by transverse electron distribution shaping

Journal Article Emma, C. ; Wu, J. ; Fang, K. ; ... - Physical Review Special Topics. Accelerators and Beams

We study the dependence of the peak power of a 1.5 Å Terawatt (TW), tapered x-ray free-electron laser (FEL) on the transverse electron density distribution. Multidimensional optimization schemes for TW hard x-ray free-electron lasers are applied to the cases of transversely uniform and parabolic electron beam distributions and compared to a Gaussian distribution. The optimizations are performed for a 200 m undulator and a resonant wavelength of λ_r = 1.5 Å using the fully three-dimensional FEL particle code GENESIS. The study shows that the flatter transverse electron distributions enhance optical guiding in the tapered section of the undulator and increasemore »« less

Experimental demonstration of fresh bunch self-seeding in an X-ray free electron laser

Journal Article Emma, C. ; Lutman, A. ; Guetg, M. W. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Here, we report the generation of ultrahigh brightness X-ray pulses using the Fresh Bunch Self-Seeding (FBSS) method in an X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL). The FBSS method uses two different electron slices or bunches, one to generate the seed and the other to amplify it after the monochromator. This method circumvents the trade-off between the seed power and electron slice energy spread, which limits the efficiency of regular self-seeded FELs. The experiment, the performance of which is limited by existing hardware, shows FBSS feasibility, generating 5.5 keV photon pulses which are 9 fs long and of 7.3 ×10^–5 bandwidth andmore »« less
