Abstract
The dynamical properties of a storage ring free electron laser oscilla tor are reproduced using a model combining three different saturation mechanisms: laser induced energy spread of the e-beam, associated bunc h lengthening and longitudinal synchronism between laser and electron pulses. The stationary output power is shown to be always linked to th e power emitted via synchrotron radiation in one machine turn by the c irculating e-beam.
