Abstract
We study the dynamics of a two frequency wiggler high current Compton free electron laser (FEL) oscillator. We show that the non-linear phas e of the radiation amplification and saturation mechanisms are quite d ifferent from the standard case, leading both to strong efficiency enh ancement and sideband inhibition. We give a detailed scenario for the dynamics, allowing one to obtain a priori estimates and to draw operat ional conclusions.
