Free electron laser polarization control with interfering crossed polarized fields

Free electron lasers emit powerful and coherent radiation in a wide wavelength range extending to hard x-rays. This radiation is also characterized by a high degree of polarization that is generally linear and depends on the undulator properties. The possibility of controlling the polarization state...
