3D particle tracking technique for FEL start-up and saturation effects

de Loos, M. J.; van der Geer, C. A. J.; van der Geer, S. G.; van der Meer, A. F. G.; Oepts, D.; Wünsch, R.

We show that the 3D simulation code GPT (General Particle Tracer) can give very detailed results on both the produced radiation and the evolution of the elctron bunch when special subsets of electrons are tracked instead of individual macro- particles. The model and two apllications are presented.
