Abstract

The dynamical stability of electron trajectories of a free-electron laser with a quadrupole wiggler is studied. For this purpose, the numerical computation of Kolmogorov entropy is used. Self-electric and self-magnetic fields are taken into account, and the focusing of the beam is enhanced by an axial magnetic field. A considerable decrease in the dynamical stability of electron trajectories was found when self-fields are considered. Also, it was found that an axial magnetic field can significantly alter the regular trajectories of the electrons.
