Abstract

Spatial characterization of the VUV Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission (SASE) of the SPring-8 Compact SASE Source (SCSS) Test Accelerator was performed by use of a Hartmann Wavefront Sensor (HWS). The SASE light was characterized for different gains of the Free Electron Laser (FEL), showing that mode selection occurs as closer to the saturation regime of the FEL. The single-shot wavefront measurements were demonstrated to be in good agreement with numerical simulations using GENESIS and SRW propagation code.
