Abstract

The linear theory of a free electron laser based on a sheet beam propagating in a narrow gap is developed. The three-dimensional structure of the radiation field is determined for an infinitely thin sheet beam. Included are the effects of diffraction and space charge. The possibility of diffractive suppression of unwanted modes is discussed.
