| abstract: | We present the results of numerical calculations of the effects of noise, slippage and superradiance in the UCLA infrared (IR) free electron laser (FEL). The experiment, which uses a high brightness electron beam produced by a photocathode RF gun and a 1.5 cm period planar undulator, compares the FEL evolution starting from noise to that starting from an input signal. Numerical studies indicate that we can observe saturation, optical guiding effects and a superradiant spike. |
