And yet, I seeem to have completely missed subsequent development of
the diffractive-cavity version....

That was hashed out on the SFCONSIM-L list, so folks reading
rec.arts.sf.science would have missed out on this part of the
discussion.

Off I go to search the archives....

And here I am back from searching the archives. It was most
interesting. And I've come back with a question about the microwave
wiggler concept- firing a microwave beam backwards at the electron
beam to provide the alternating magnetic field, rather than using
stationary magnets. As I recall, the impetus behing the sheet laser
design was that the size of the wiggler is limited by available
magnetic field strengths- is there any practical limit on the aperture
size of a microwave wiggler?
