Sensitivity Study of a Tapered Free-Electron Laser

Mak, Alan LU ; Curbis, Francesca LU orcid and Werin, Sverker LU (2014) International Free-Electron Laser Conference, 2014 p.399-402
Abstract
The output power of a free-electron laser (FEL) can be greatly enhanced by tapering the undulator line. In this work, a sensitivity study of a tapered FEL is presented. The study is conducted using the numerical simulation code GENESIS and a taper optimization method. Starting from a possible case for the future X-ray FEL at the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden, a number of parameters are varied systematically and the impact on the FEL power is investigated. These parameters include the electron beam's initial energy, current, emittance, energy spread, as well as the seed radiation power.
