AB - Undulator tapering controls the resonance properties of the Free-Electron Laser (FEL) amplification process. Energy losses in an undulator, caused by synchrotron radiation and wakefields within the undulator's vacuum chamber, determine the undulator's linear taper. Synchrotron radiation contribution can be calculated analytically, while calculating wakefield energy loss necessitates a beam current profile.We introduce a system for the automatic estimation of wakefield energy loss, which leverages non-invasive THz diagnostics, a current profile reconstruction algorithm enhanced with machine learning, and a recently developed analytical wakefield function for the undulator beamline. The effectiveness of this approach was validated by directly measuring wakefield-induced electron beam energy loss in the European XFEL's undulator section.
