High-efficiency free-electron-laser experiments
Abstract
Experiments with a tapered-wiggler free-electron laser demonstrated extraction of about 3% of the energy from the electron beam and measured the corresponding optical emission. These results are in excellent agreement with theory and represent an order-of-magnitude improvement over all previous results.
