The first constant above corresponds to conservation of

The electrons can be thought of as a collection of pendula initially distributed
over a range of angles with respect to the vertical. The radiation field is
analogous to the gravitational field. The separartrix defines the boundary
between pendula that librate and rotate. Of course in the FEL equations
above, unlike a gravitational field, the radiation field can evolve in both
amplitude a, and phase .

Regions of radiation pulse separated by evolve independently of
other regions. Hence there can be many regions that evolve independently
from different initial source terms due to noise* . This
leads to a noisy temporal and spectral radiation pulse.

The effects of energy spread can be
investigated by introducing a spread in the

The steady state dispersion relation

Emittance*
http://www.fieldp.com/cpb.htmlCharged Particle Beams:*Stanley Humphries,
The beam emittance introduces two main effects:
1) The electron beam radius in a matched focussing
channel** is determined by the emittance via:
2) The emittance introduces an energy spread in the
resonant electron energy***. This can be added in
quadrature with the real energy spread to estimate
emittance effects in a 1D model:
β – betafunction
of focussing
lattice.

Diffraction
The Rayleigh length lZR is that in which a beam diffracts to twice its
transverse mode area. In an FEL amplifier, if the gain length of the FEL
interaction is much greater than the Rayleigh length then diffraction can
cause reduced coupling and longer saturation lengths.
