Dear Michael:

I would like to know how the interaction of an electron beam with a laser with chirp is carried out in elegant simulations using LSRMDLTR.
Looking forward to your reply！Thank you!

Best regards,
Hao

Hao,

The LSRMDLTR element simply computes the electric and magnetic fields of the co-propagating laser beam. Together with the magnetic field of the undulator, these are used to compute the forces on electrons, which allows integrating the equations of motion.
