Description

In this paper the classical theory of the transverse optical klystron is presented. The gain is obtained by solving analytically the Vlasov equation which governs the evolution of the electron beam along the undulator magnet. The initial energy distribution of the electron beam is assumed gaussian. Both the small signal and the saturation regime are investigated
