Radially resolved simulation of a high-gain free electron laser amplifier
Abstract
The results of a two-dimensional simulation of a high-gain free electron laser (FEL) amplifier are presented. The simulation solves the inhomogeneous paraxial wave equation. The source term is radially resolved and is obtained by tracking the interaction of the laser field with localized macroparticles.
