Production of high power terahertz radiation through the SPARC Free-Electron Laser

We present the TERASPARC project at the SPARC Free-Electron Laser in Italy. Sub-picosecond, high power terahertz pulses extended until 5 THz are produced using a coherent transition radiation source. Here we discuss the properties of the radiation, the possibility to produce exotic pulse shape and some of the planned pump-probe experiments.
