In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a time-dependent electromagnetic field and a Coulomb potential, which arises as an effective single particle model in X-ray free electron lasers(XFEL). We firstly show the local and global well-posedness for the Cauchy problem under the assumption that the magnetic potential is unbounded and time-dependent, and then obtain the regularity by a fixed point argument.

Keywords: The Cauchy problem, time-dependent electromagnetic field, time-dependent Coulomb potential, XFEL Schrödinger equation.
