  8. Equation of Motion of Electrons in IDs Neglecting vertical motion, we have J. J. Bisognano

  9. First Order Solution Since there is a Bs, one can get a vertical force; i.e., focusing J. J. Bisognano

  10. Basic Parameters J. J. Bisognano

  11. Second Order Energy Conservation says that if x is moving it’s at the expense of longitudinal energy J. J. Bisognano

  15. Photon Frequency in Lab Expect a “blue” shift since waves get pushed together as beam is moving toward observer Use fact that energy of photon is hf, momentum is hf/c J. J. Bisognano

  16. Undulator Spectrum Since train is of finite length (N cycles), there is a width to spectrum, but it is very narrow, order 1/N If one includes that motion is really not perfectly sinusoidal (remember the figure 8 and energy modulation) but that it does repeat in time, there is harmonic generation J. J. Bisognano

  17. Higher harmonics add to reach of an undulator Require care in phase errors of undulator periodic fields Cern School J. J. Bisognano

  20. Spontaneous Emission Note that for higher frequency, you need higher energy or shorter undulator period Shorter undulator period implies smaller gap J. J. Bisognano

  22. Brightness/Brilliance J. J. Bisognano

  23. Physics of FELs • An electron beam moving on a linear trajectory will have no net energy coupling to a co-moving E&M wave, just “jiggled” • In a wiggler (really undulator), an electron beam develops a transverse oscillation, as we’ve just seen • If the oscillation stays in phase with the fields, there can be a net exchange of beam energy to the wave; i.e., the electron beam acts to amplify the electromagnetic wave J. J. Bisognano

  24. Oscillators and SASEs • If one puts beam/wiggler into optical resonantor, there is a feedback loop that generates an oscillator and a laser • If the wiggler is long enough, the energy modulation of the electron beam can generate “microbunches” which can radiate coherently, generation self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) from the Schottky noise on the beam, lasing without mirrors from a beam instability • Or one can “seed” the beam with an energy modulation induced by an external laser • Sources are tunable (beam energy or wiggler field) and coherent J.

  32. η φ Gain only when energy of beam doesn’t quite match “ideal” energy If wiggler is two long, process reverses, unless wiggler is “tapered” CERN School J. J. Bisognano

  36. Looks like derivative of undulator power spectrum: fluctuation-dissipation or Madey’s theorem SYLee Text J. J. Bisognano

  37. High Gain Regime So far, we haven’t included how the increasing electromagnetic wave affects the continued electron motion Also, there is a density variation developing Also, at high enough frequencies there are no good mirrors to make an optical resonator “High Gain” regime, really an instability saves the day, and points to X-ray lasers J. J. Bisognano

  38. Basic Principle: Coherent Synchrotron Radiation If we can get “microbunching” of electron beam, strong enhancement over incoherent synchrotron radiation J. J. Bisognano

  39. High Gain FEL to the Rescue: Basic Feedback Loop • Electron beam responds to co-traveling electromagnetic wave in a wiggler/undulator • Electrons radiate by stimulated emission in wiggler • Electrons move relative to each other: density variations at wavelength of radiation • Density variations radiate coherently in wiggler/undulator • Electromagnetic field is enhanced, with changes to both its amplitude and phase • Electron move relative to each other in response to to co-traveling electromagnetic other: density variations grow at wavelength of radiation • Genuine instability with exponential growth of both the density variation and the electromagnetic radiation J. J. Bisognano

  40. Further Details • Can send beam through a dispersive compressor where the microbunching through energy variation is enhanced, “optical klystron” • Generates higher harmonics • Since Schottky (shot) noise is “noisy,” can instead seed with laser J. J. Bisognano
