Stable, coherent free-electron laser pulses using echo-enabled harmonic generation

Beam lines using echo-enabled harmonic generation can be designed to have extremely low sensitivity to energy chirps in the electron beam, as shown through theory and detailed simulations. These designs would allow stable and coherent radiation to be produced even when using electron beams with a la...
