X-ray free-electron lasers
Brian McNeil,N.R. Thompson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe how X-ray free-electron lasers work, discuss the range of new sources being developed worldwide, and consider how such Xray sources may develop over the coming years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-wavelength free-electron laser sources and science: a review
E. A. Seddon,E. A. Seddon,E. A. Seddon,J. A. Clarke,J. A. Clarke,David Dunning,David Dunning,Claudio Masciovecchio,Christopher J. Milne,Fulvio Parmigiani,Fulvio Parmigiani,D Rugg,John C. H. Spence,N.R. Thompson,N.R. Thompson,Kiyoshi Ueda,Sam Vinko,Justin Wark,Wilfried Wurth +18 more
TL;DR: This review is focused on free-electron lasers (FELs) in the hard to soft x-ray regime and provides newcomers to the area with insights into: the basic physics of FELs, the qualities of the radiation they produce, the challenges of transmitting that radiation to end users and the diversity of current scientific applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mode locking in a free-electron laser amplifier.
N.R. Thompson,Brian McNeil +1 more
TL;DR: The optics-free technique synthesizes a comb of longitudinal modes by applying a series of spatiotemporal shifts between the copropagating radiation and electron bunch in the free-electron laser to generate attosecond pulse trains of radiation.

TL;DR: The European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications (EuPRAXIA) as mentioned in this paper is a European facility with multi-GeV electron beams using plasma as the acceleration medium for photon science, high-energy physics (HEP) detector tests, and other applications such as compact X-ray sources for medical imaging or material processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Harmonic lasing in a free-electron-laser amplifier.
TL;DR: A method is demonstrated that allows a planar wiggler high-gain Free-Electron-Laser amplifier to lase so that the interaction with an odd harmonic of the radiation field dominates that of the fundamental.
