Linear and nonlinear analyses are described, as are detailed explanations of the nonlinear simulation of a variety of configurations including amplifiers, oscillators, self-amplified spontaneous emission, high-gain harmonic generation, and optical klystrons. Theory and simulation are anchored using comprehensive comparisons with a wide variety of experiments. Provides a complete and comprehensive discussion of the physics of free-electron lasers; Discusses basic physical concepts, along with detailed derivations of the relevant particle dynamics; Describes a variety of important configurations in use today UR - http://libcon.rec.uabc.mx:2048/login?url=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-40945-5 ER -
