It has recently been experimentally demonstrated and currently many facilities worldwide intend to incorporate it in user operation. The EEHG process relies on very accurate and complex transformations of electron beam phase space by means of a series of undulators coupled to lasers and dispersive chicanes. As a result of the phase space manipulation, electrons are bunched at a high harmonic of the seed laser wavelength allowing coherent emission at few nm wavelength. Dispersion occurring in strong chicanes is imperative for implementation of this scheme and effective electron bunching generation. However, strong chicanes at the same time can be source of beam instability effects, such as Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR), that can significantly grow in these conditions and suppress the bunching process. Therefore, there is a common need to investigate such effects in detail. Here, we discuss their treatment with simulation codes applied to a typical EEHG setup.
