Hierarchic Electrodynamics and Free Electron Lasers

This book presents the mathematical foundation for a range of applications that employ high-current free electron lasers. It provides an in-depth analysis of hierarchic plasma-like electrodynamic systems and femto-second clusters of electromagnetic energy. The author re-examines classic approaches in order to examine new insights and scientific breakthroughs. In this way, he explains the universal space in which optical entities are represented as a series of harmonic oscillators by analyzing the behavior of these structures from multiple relativistic perspectives. In addition to the free-electron laser, the text covers related topics such as lasing systems, femtosecond lasers, and parametric oscillators.
