Abstract
Optimization of electron-beam transport in FEL devices is very importa nt for efficient operation. A new simulation code for electron-beam tr ansport in FELs was developed recently at Tel-Aviv University (TAU) in order to optimize the electron-beam transport. Equations of motion of an electron in the presence of magnetic and electric fields are solve d numerically for various magnetic elements. The results of the simula tion provided guidelines for setting appropriate currents on quadrupol e magnets along the beam line. A comparison between calculated and mea sured beam diameters is provided. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All r ights reserved.
