摘要：

In this paper, we review the techniques employed in the numerical simulations of free-electron lasers, in the amplifier as well as the oscillator configuration. Special attention is given to the numerical problems associated with particle initialization (particle loading), the treatment of the paraxial wave equation, the inclusion of oscillating space charge forces in the longitudinal particle motion and the multi-frequency modelling. This overview does not, however, include the particle-in-cell simulations commonly utilized in plasma physics: Due to the large separation of scales between the wiggler and the radiation wavelengths, this type of technique is impractical for a short-wavelength free-electron laser. © 1990.
