Abstract :
A new free electron laser (FEL) using a high power laser system as a wiggler/undulator in a storage ring as an electron beam of transverse cooling with a combination of chicanes for longitudinal compression is proposed. This new scheme will open an intense FEL hard X-ray laser with much more compact systems than those proposed in the high energy linear accelerators at SLAC and DESY
