A free electron laser generates tunable, coherent, high power radiation, spanning wavelengths from millimeter to visible and potentially ultraviolet to x-ray. It can have the optical properties characteristic of conventional lasers but differs from conventional lasers in using a relativistic electron beam as its lasing medium, as opposed to bound atomic or molecular states, hence the term free-electron.Since its inception three decades ago, the free electron laser has held out the promise of high-power operation, owing to its unique ability to discard the waste heat in the gain medium at nearly the speed of light.The 22nd International Free Electron Laser Conference and 7th FEL User Workshop were held August 13-18, 2000 in Durham, North Carolina, USA. This title presents the proceedings of this conference with papers on First Lasing, FEL theory, storage ring FELs, linac and high power FELs, long wavelength FELs, SASE FELs, accelerator and FEL physics and technology, and new developments andproposals.Litvinenko, V. N. is the author of 'Free Electron Lasers 2000 ', published 2002 under ISBN 9780444509390 and ISBN 0444509399.
