A Model For The Introduction Of Noise Into Computer Simulations Of FEL Pulse Propagation
Abstract
We have developed a model for computer simulation of shot noise and quantum field fluctuations in order to study the effect of noise on the startup and saturated operation of a free electron laser. The model is described and some results relevant to the Stanford 3 μm laser are presented.
