Abstract
We report on a time-resolved measurement of self-amplified spontaneous emission free-electron laser (FEL) pulses. We observed that the spikes in such FEL pulses have an intrinsic positive chirp and the energy chirp in the electron bunch mapped directly into the FEL output. The measurement also provides rich information on the statistics of the FEL pulses. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. PACS: 41.60. Cr; 42.55. Vc; 05.40. a; 42.50. Ar
