FEL simulations in 3D

FEL simulations with the PSC in three dimensions.

28.04.2015

The plots below show the onset of 3D FEL radiation from an electron bunch propagating through an undulator with 5mm undulator length, undulator strength of 0.1, an electron bunch density of 1014/ccm at 1 MeV. Electrons are illustrated in grey scale. Fields are illustrated in red and blue. The FEL radiation is observed in front of the electron bunch.
