Microwave Undulators and Electron Generators for New-Generation Free-Electron Lasers

Аннотация

We discuss possible applications of relativistic pulsed microwave electronic devices in physics and engineering of modern free-electron lasers. In particular, the possibilities of using high-power millimeter-wave radiation pulses for electron pitching in the operating space of the laser (in a microwave undulator), as well as for cooling and focusing of electron bunches, are considered.
