Electromagnetic wave pumped ion-channel free electron laser

Description

Theoretical study of electromagnetic wave pumped ion-channel free-electron laser (EPIC-FEL) is presented. The physical mechanism responsible for the generation of coherent radiation in the EPIC-FEL is described and the fundamental role of the ponderomotive wave in bunching and trapping the beam is emphasized. The dispersion relation of the EPIC-FEL has been obtained and growth rates are calculated for different parameters. It shows that EPIC-FEL has a very bright future
