Multiple-scale analysis is a powerful perturbative technique that permits to construct uniformly valid approximation to solutions of nonlinear problems.
The idea is to eliminate the secular contributions at all orders by introducing an additional variable =t, defining a longer time scale. Multiple scale analysis seeks solution which are function of t and treated as independent variables
When studying perturbed systems with usual perturbation expansion, we can have secular terms in the approximated solution, which diverges in time.
2. Multiple scale analysis
Example: approach to limit cycle
Consider the Rayleigh oscillator, whose solution approaches a limit cycle in phase-space.
Using regular perturbation expansion
inserting in (1) and solving order by order
This expression is a good approximation of the exact solution only for short time. When t~O(1/є) the discrepancy becomes relevant

The first order solution contains a term that diverges like εt
Multiple-scale analysis permits to avoid the presence of secularities.
where =t.
Assume a perturbation expansion in the form:
(1)
(2)
Inserting the ansatz and equating coefficients of 0 and 1 we obtain:
The solution of eq (1) reads:
Observe that secular terms will arise unless the coefficients of eit in the right hand side of eq. (2) vanish.
Setting the contribution to zero, after some algebra, one gets:
where
Coming back to the original time variable, the solution reads:
• The approximate solution accounts both for the initial growth and for the later saturated regime
• We have obtain a zero-th order solution that remains valid for time at least of order 1/є, while usual perturbation method is valid only for t~O(1)

Linear analysis
In the linear regime one gets:
The dispersion relation reads:
Thus motivating the introduction of the slower time scales

Following the prescription of the multiple-scale analysis we replace the time derivative by:

Analytical solution
This solution account for both the exponential growth and the limit cycle asymptotic behavior
Comparison with numerical results
• Qualitative agreement with numerical results, both for exponential growth and saturated regime
• The saturation intensity level increases with δ as observed in numerical simulation
• the level of the plateau is sensibly higher than the corresponding numerical value: probably some approximations need to be relaxed (quasi-linear approximation)
3. Conclusions and perspectives
• Developed an analytical approach to study the dynamics and saturated intensity of a single-pass FEL in the steady-state regime.
• Future direction of investigations: HMF?
• Next step: improvement of the calculations to have a quantitative matching with numerical results.
