Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A quasilinear theory of the self-consistent evolution of the electron-beam distribution and radiation field within a free-electron laser is presented. The relativistic electron beam propagates through an ideal helical wiggler B =-B(cos kzê+sin d zê), for which the transverse gradients ∂/∂x=0=∂/∂y have been neglected. The transverse variation of both the transverse-polarized radiation field and the electron-beam distribution have also been neglected. Additionally, the electron beam is assumed to be sufficiently tenuous that the longitudinal space-charge potential δφ is negligible and the Compton approximations are applicable. The resulting asymptotic expression for the spectral energy density is used to evaluate the efficiency and saturated radiation power in a variety of parameter regimes relevant to experiments.
