Theoretical Research on Charged Particle Beam and Other Plasma Systems.

Abstract

The research involved the theoretical analysis of charged particle beam and other plasma systems. The major emphasis of the research was on modeling the free-electron-laser (FEL) oscillator. The approach was to utilize a first order description for the evolution of relativistic electron beam pulses in a cavity with an applied wiggler magnetic field to develop a model for the modal electromagnetic energy in a FEL oscillator.
