Various FEL codes employ different approximations and strategies to model the FEL radiation generation process. Many codes perform averaging procedures over various length scales in order to simplify the underlying dynamics. As FELs are developed in more advanced configurations beyond simple SASE, the assumptions of some codes may be called into question. We compare the unaveraged code Puffin to averaged FEL codes including a new version of GENESIS in a variety of situations. In particular, we study a harmonic lasing setup, a High-Gain Harmonic Generation (HGHG) configuration modeled after the FERMI setup, and a potential Echo-Enabled Harmonic Generation (EEHG) configuration also at FERMI. We find the codes are in good agreement, although small discrepancies do exist.

Free-electron lasers (FELs) that produce different polarizations of the output radiation ranging from linear through elliptic to circular polarization are currently under study. In particular, elliptic polarizations are undergoing increased interest. In this paper, we develop an analytic model of the resonant wavelength and JJ-factor for an elliptic undulator as well as both one- and three-dimensional, time-dependent formulations that are capable of simulating elliptic undulators using the PUFFIN and MINERVA simulation codes.*,** We present an analytic model of an APPLE-II undulator that is capable of modeling arbitrary elliptic polarizations, and discuss examples of simulation results.

The resonant frequency of a free electron laser may be modulated via the undulator or electron beam parameters. This modulation may generate sidebands which can subsequently undergo amplification, analogous to frequency modulation in a conventional cavity laser. However, due to the relative slippage of the light through the relativistic electron beam, the FM-FEL system has a more complex behavior than its conventional laser counterpart. The system may be described in the linear regime by a summation over exponential gain modes, allowing the amplification of multiple light frequencies simultaneously. It is found that, with only small, few percent variations of the FEL parameters, one may generate and amplify multiple modes within a frequency bandwidth which greatly exceeds that of normal FEL operation.
