Three-dimensional manipulation of electron beam phase space for seeding soft x-ray free-electron lasers

In this paper, a simple technique is proposed to induce strong density modulation into the electron beam with small energy modulation. By using the combination of a transversely dispersed electron beam and a wave-front tilted seed laser, three-dimensional manipulation of the electron beam phase spac...
