Tapered-Wiggler Free-Electron Laser Oscillator Program.

Abstract

The purpose of this program is to provide data and analysis for assessing the potential of tapered-wiggler free-electron laser (FEL) oscillators as high-efficiency sources of coherent radiation. It is expected that the tapered-wiggler concept will lead to the development of high-efficiency FELs by providing substantial energy extraction in a single pass of the e-beam through the wiggler magnet. The work consists of parallel experimental and theory tasks.
