Compensation of wakefield-driven energy spread in energy recovery linacs

Energy recovery linacs provide high-energy beams, but decelerate those beams before dumping them, so that their energy is available for the acceleration of new particles. During this deceleration, any relative energy spread that is created at high energy is amplified by the ratio between high energy...
