Cluster spectroscopy using high-intensity pulses from vacuum UV free electron lasers

We discuss recent results on soft and hard X-ray free electron lasers (FELs) and how they can be used to design and optimize the next generation of these sources of high brightness, coherent photons, with femtosecond pulse duration, or very narrow linewidth. In particular, we consider the experimental and theoretical progress in the electron beam generation and manipulation. These results, when combined with the successful development of powerful simulation codes, can be used to design optimized, high intensity sources of coherent photons, and to reduce their size and cost.

High Power Radiation

The Smith-Purcell radiation of a charged particle moving in a periodic structure is analysed theoretically. The considered structure consists of two planar diffraction gratings with different periods which are formed by parallel conducting wires. The analytical expression for the spectral-angular distribution of radiation is obtained. It is shown that the angular distribution of radiation can be made narrower by using two gratings instead of one, and radiation intensity can be manipulated by parallel relative shift of gratings. The obtained results are of great importance for the research and development of high power radiation sources based on volume free-electron lasers.
