Up-sampling of electron beam simulation particles with addition of shot-noise

P. Traczykowski, L. T. Campbell, B. W. J. McNeil

An algorithm and numerical code for the up-sampling of a system of particles, from a smaller to a larger number, is described. The method introduces a Poissonian `shot-noise' to th…

Attosecond-Angstrom free-electron-laser towards the cold beam limit

A. F. Habib, G. G. Manahan, P. Scherkl +13

Electron beam quality is paramount for X-ray pulse production in free-electron-lasers (FELs). State-of-the-art linear accelerators (linacs) can deliver multi-GeV electron beams wit…

Free Electron Lasers using `Beam by Design'

J. R. Henderson, L. T. Campbell, B. W. J. McNeil

Several methods have been proposed in the literature to improve Free Electron Laser output by transforming the electron phase-space before entering the FEL interaction region. By u…

Tunable Electron Multibunch Production in Plasma Wakefield Accelerators

B. Hidding, O. Karger, G. Wittig +15

Synchronized, independently tunable and focused J-class laser pulses are used to release multiple electron populations via photo-ionization inside an electron-beam driven plasma…

Transform-Limited X-Ray Pulse Generation from a High Brightness Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission Free-Electron Laser

B. W. J. McNeil, N. R. Thompson, D. J. Dunning

A method to achieve High-Brightness Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission (HB-SASE) in the Free Electron Laser (FEL) is described. The method uses repeated non-equal electron beam de…
