Limit-cycle behavior in free electron lasers
Many Free Electron Lasers (FEL) are driven by short electron pulses which create equally short optical pulses. At saturation, the strong optical fields present in the undulator result in the trapped particle instability which drives the carrier wave unstable and modulates the optical pulse. The trap...
