Statistical theory of a self-seeded free electron laser with noise pedestal growth
Abstract
We study the impact of a spectral noise pedestal on the statistical properties of a self-seeded free electron laser (FEL). The broad pedestal is assumed to come from self amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) in the second stage of the self-seeding system and is uncorrelated with the narrowband amplified seed. An analytic description is developed based on the statistical theory of a one-dimensional FEL in the high gain linear regime. The theory shows good agreement with experimental data, which show that the presence of a SASE background can have a strong impact on the statistical behavior of self-seeding systems.
