High-gain free-electron lasers, conceived in the 1980s, are nowadays the only bright sources of coherent X-ray radiation available. In this article, we review the theory developed by R. Bonifacio and coworkers, who have been some of the first scientists envisaging its operation as a single-pass amplifier starting from incoherent undulator radiation, in the so called self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) regime. We review the FEL theory, discussing how the FEL parameters emerge from it, which are fundamental for describing, designing and understanding all FEL experiments in the high-gain, single-pass operation.

Photon Science

Accelerator-based light sources stimulated progress in photon science in a truly extraordinary manner. The spectral brightness of storage-ring-based facilities increased by three orders of magnitude every 10 years since the 1960s. The extreme peak brightness at single-pass free electron X-ray lasers with pulse durations variable between about 1 and 300 femtoseconds will allow transformative experiments in many areas of science. This article is an attempt to show how progress in accelerator science and technology stimulated advancement in photon science, by discussing a limited number of examples of work at third generation storage ring facilities and free electron lasers. Hopes for further improvements in specific beam properties are expressed.
