Abstract

The INEX (integrated numerical experiment) numerical model is applied to the 0.6 /spl mu/m FEL oscillator at the Boeing laboratory in Seattle, WA. This system consists of a 110 MeV L-band rf linac, a beam transport line from the accelerator to the entrance of the wiggler, the 5.0 m THUNDER variable-taper wiggler, and a near-concentric two-mirror optical oscillator. Many aspects of the model for the electron beam accelerator and transport line agree with experimental measurements. Predictions for lasing performance are compared with data obtained in May and June 1989, using a mild-tapered wiggler. We obtain good agreement with the achieved extraction efficiency, while ID pulse simulations reproduce the observed sideband instability.
