Abstract
The narrow width of an rf-accelerated electron micropulse can be exploited to yield gain significantly higher than in the conventional FEL. If the micropulses are much shorter than the wavelength of the generated wave and the electrons are resonant with the FEL beat wave, then a low order prebunched FEL interaction results. All electrons lose energy to the waveKeywords
