For a discussion of the method behind this element, see M. Borland, ``Simple method for particle tracking with coherent synchrotron radiation,'' Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 4, 070701 (2001).

Recommendations for using this element. The default values for this element are not the best ones to use. They are retained only for consistency through upgrades. In using this element, it is recommended to have 50 to 100 k particle in the simulation. Setting BINS=600 and SG_HALFWIDTH=1 is also recommended to allow resolution of fine structure in the beam and to avoid excessive smoothing. It is strongly suggested that the user vary these parameters and view the histogram output to verify that the longitudinal distribution is well represented by the histograms (use OUTPUT_FILE to obtain the histograms). For LCLS simulations, we find that the above parameters give essentially the same results as obtained with 500 k particles and up to 3000 bins.

In order to verify that the 1D approximation is valid, the user should also set DERBENEV_CRITERION_MODE = ``evaluate'' and view the data in OUTPUT_FILE. Generally, the criterion should be much less than 1.
