Mathematical Analysis of Three Free-Electron-Laser Issues

Abstract

The Principal Investigator has concentrated mainly on Project 2 during this initial support period. In late August 1989, the preliminary results were presented in a paper given at the Eleventh International Conference on Free Electron Lasers (see Digest of paper, Appendix E). Further results including a guide magnetic field were presented in a second paper given at the Thirty-First Annual Plasma Divisional Meeting of the American Physical Society held in November 1989 (see abstract, Appendix F). Two important developments have been (1) the recognition that the conditions for minimal axial degradation and for immunity to saturation by trapping (Research Objective 6) can be satisfied simultaneously, and (2) a numerical example of a 33 TW submicron radiation source (see Appendix D, Submitted paper).
