E.L. Saldin, E.A. Schneidmiller, M.V. Yurkov<br />

Chaotic versus periodic modulations<br />

• Cheap <strong>an</strong>d robust method<br />

• Pulse width the same <strong>as</strong> that of SASE pulse, perfect timing<br />

down to sub-fs <strong>for</strong> hard x-<strong>ray</strong>s<br />

• Wider spectral r<strong>an</strong>ge available<br />

• On-line monitoring of SASE pulse width possible<br />

Disadv<strong>an</strong>tages:<br />

• Less power (in c<strong>as</strong>e of undulator)<br />

• Intrinsic shot-to-shot fluctuations of pulse energy<br />
