Two-Stage FEL (Free Electron Laser) Research at KMS Fusion, Inc.

Abstract

The basic concept and constraints on two stage free electron lasers are summarized, and the two stage FEL design employing a helical wiggler and quasioptical cavity is described. Recent work is reviewed in the areas of cavity design, modeling of the field of a permanent magnet helical wiggler, fabrication and calibration of permanent magnet dipole rings, and electrostatic accelerator design. A list of publications resulting from this project is given in the references.
