{"product_id":"laser-handbook-volume-6-free-electron-lasers","title":"Laser Handbook, Volume 6: Free Electron Lasers","description":"\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClaudio Pellegrini pioneered the development of short wavelength free-electron lasers operating in the high gain regime. He was the first to propose the construction of an X-ray FEL (LCLS) using the SLAC linear accelerator. His group gave the first experimental demonstration of exponential gain in the Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission mode, now used by X-ray FELs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Description\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Free Electron Laser triggers, for many people, wild fantasies on large scale applications. However, Free Electron Lasers are not so much direct devices for various applications, but form an interesting subject within fundamental physics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe interplay between electric magnetic and the photon field have an intrinsic beauty and are deeply rooted in the fundamental understanding of nature. In this volume, edited by three major initiators in the field and containing contributions from experts belonging to the most advanced groups working on the subject, a first, comprehensive account of the Free Electron Laser is given. Chapters include both complete classical and quantum mechanical descriptions. Various types of experiments with intrinsic strong points and weaknesses are described while attention is also given to state-of-the-art experiments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is not intended as a catalogue of on-going experiments. It is the first large scale reference source on which all further publications on Free Electron Lasers will be based. It will therefore be indispensable for theorists and experimentalists interested in the fundamental aspects of these types of lasers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e... this handbook forms a unique and up to date account of the present state of knowledge. Essentially anyone seriously interested in the subject would benefit from this handbook.\u003cbr\u003eJournal of Modern Optics\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colson, W.B.,Renieri, A.,Pellegrini, Claudio","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":52713412526363,"sku":"mon0000795707","price":596.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/4004\/3291\/files\/10231973482346.jpg?v=1785614754","url":"https:\/\/bookalley.com\/products\/laser-handbook-volume-6-free-electron-lasers","provider":"Book Alley","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
