Abstract

Self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) free electron laser (FEL) devices have disclosed an unexpected interplay between the laser intensity growth and regions of the electron bunch of the order of the coherence length. They are usually identified with the bunch slice and contribute to the laser dynamics with their own characteristics. The dynamical effects inducing geometrical and phase space misalignment of bunch slice in X-ray operating FELs can be traced back to a plethora of phenomena, both in the Linac accelerating section or inside the beam transport optic magnet. They are responsible for spoiling of the beam projected qualities and, if not corrected properly, induce an increase of the saturation length and a decreasing of the output power. We discuss the inclusion of these effects in models employing scaling formulae.
