Popis: A full start-to-end (S2E) software model of a laser system – including oscillator, amplifier, stretcher/compressor, pulse shaper, and non-linear conversion – can be essential in choosing the hardware design and establishing limitations on what can be accomplished given a specific hardware setup. Furthermore, such S2E models can even allow one to reverse engineer a laser system should it be necessary for characterization. Here, we present a generalized S2E model of a photoinjector laser system, currently targeted for X-ray Free-Electron Lasers but which can readily be adapted to any broadly defined laser system.
