abstract = {{External seeding in combination with harmonic generation has become a hot topic in the field of high gain free-electron lasers (FELs) since it allows delivery of superior FEL radiation characterized by, for example, full coherence and unprecedented shot-to-shot stability. At low repetition rate machines operating at few 10 Hz, novel experiments have been realized already, however, at superconducting machines, current laser technology does not support exploiting the full repetition rate available. One way to overcome this problem is to reduce the requirements in seed laser power: here, an optical klystron based high gain harmonic generation (HGHG) setup is proposed to reduce the laser peak power requirements by orders of magnitude, enabling operation at drastically increased repetition rates. We report simulation results based on the seeded beamline concept of the FLASH2020+ project. Among other topics, the effect of a linear electron beam energy chirp on this setup will be discussed.}},
