Description

Forward Bragg diffraction (FBD)-based hard X-ray self-seeding (HXRSS) is a promising method for producing narrow-bandwidth and stable hard X-ray FEL pulses. However, the pulse-energy stability of self-seeded FELs can be influenced by several temporal effects, including the FBD filter response, the electron bunch duration, the seed-pulse overlap, and the self-seeding chicane delay. In this work, we numerically investigate the origin of FEL pulse-energy rms jitter in FBD-based HXRSS under baseline conditions without undulator tapering and without bunch energy chirp. By excluding these additional optimization and compensation effects, the study focuses on the intrinsic temporal factors that determine the FEL energy fluctuation.
