General question

Hi,

Is it possible to set a non-gaussian temporal shape of the laser pulse ?
Can I do it directly in FBPIC ?

Thanks,
Frank

Thanks for the question.

You could define the slow rising and falling temporal shape in a numpy array and then pass it to this class:

Hi @RemiLehe,

Thanks for replying. I think this will work. I will try to generate the laser pulse and also try to load it in FBPIC.
If any issue will appear, I may seek your advice.

Thanks a lot.

Hi @RemiLehe,

It worked ! Now, I need to try to load the data in FBPIC. I will try it soon. If I fail, I may need your help in loading data properly in FBPIC.

Thanks,
F
