Phys. Rev. E 65, 046503 (2002) [10 pages]Self-amplified coherent spontaneous emission in the planar wiggler free-electron laserSee Also: Erratum Received 5 December 2001; revised 15 January 2002; published 3 April 2002 Coherent spontaneous emission (CSE) is a potentially important self-generated source of seed radiation in a free-electron laser (FEL) amplifier. A model is derived that describes CSE at the fundamental resonant frequency and its harmonics in a planar wiggler FEL. The subsequent self-amplification of the CSE is investigated in the nonlinear regime for a FEL amplifier configuration. © 2002 The American Physical Society URL:
