Overview
- Contains the important recent results on short-wavelength FEL radiation that have been obtained in the past few years
- First university-style textbook on FEL physics.
- Differs from previous books on the same subject in that considerable attention is paid to the accelerator physics issues that are important for high-gain FELs
Part of the book series: Springer Tracts in Modern Physics (STMP, volume 229)

About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“Many coloured illustrations with detailed comments attracted my attention … . The book … covers both the theoretical description of FEL physics and the experimental methods used to build an FEL and to control the radiation parameters. … very useful for students who are beginning to study FEL physics. It is also valuable for experts, who may look at their research from a different point of view and compare the authors’ way of presenting material with their own way of explaining FEL physics.” (Nikolay Vinokurov, CERN Courier, Vol. 50 (9), November, 2010)Authors and Affiliations
