| contents | Inverse Compton scattering (ICS) is a unique source of highly monochromatic x-ray and gamma radiation. We investigate theoretically the cumulative effects of repeated interactions between the electron beam and a train of powerful laser pulses in linear accelerators. We find that the longitudinal momentum spread converges exponentially to an equilibrium value due to the competition between quantum excitation (heating) and radiation friction (cooling). This is supported by both the theoretical model and simulations, where beams with different initial energy spreads converge toward a common equilibrium. Our work establishes the need to account for cumulative transverse beam dynamics in the design and optimization of future stable, high-brightness ICS sources. |
