Reduction of energy chirp by the wake of coherent synchrotron radiation

When an energy-chirped bunch is undercompressed in a magnetic chicane, the compressed bunch also has an energy chirp. The chirp may be decreased by sending the bunch through bending magnets, since the largest energy loss from the wake of coherent synchrotron radiation occurs in the tail of a typical...

description When an energy-chirped bunch is undercompressed in a magnetic chicane, the compressed bunch also has an energy chirp. The chirp may be decreased by sending the bunch through bending magnets, since the largest energy loss from the wake of coherent synchrotron radiation occurs in the tail of a typical bunch. We obtain formulas for the dechirping of a rectangular bunch by short magnets, and apply this dechirping technique in a design for a free-electron laser.
