Modal analysis of a seeded free-electron laser
It has been shown that the direct seeding can enhance the performance of a free-electron laser (FEL) in terms of its spectral, temporal, and coherence properties and reduces fluctuations in FEL output energy and arrival-time jitter. The properties of the used seed photon pulse are of high importance...
