We present here the results of an extensive simulation activity for th
e TESLA SASE FEL. We have used the program GINGER to determine the FEL
saturation length and the power fluctuations from shut to shot. The s
pectral properties of the output power and the correlation functions a
re investigated and compared with available theoretical models.
