Abstract
Induction linac accelerators are specifically designed to produce high current electron beams. The high quality, high current beam made available by these accelerators enables one to build free electron lasers with extremely high single pass gain (>40 dB) and high extraction efficiency (>35%). Several high gain FELs have been built and operated at LLNL over the past 10 years, and a complete set of numerical models has been developed to guide the design of future FELs.
