Abstract
Effects producing gain dilution in Free Electron Laser devices are well documented. We develop here a unified point of view allowing the introduction of space charge effects, along with the gain deterioration due to inhomogeneous broadening contributions and discuss the relevant interplay. We outline future developments and comment on the possibility of including in the formalism effects of quantum mechanical nature.
