Absolute spectral metrology of XFEL pulses using diffraction in crystals

Ilia Petrov, Liubov Samoylova, Sarlota Birnsteinova +13

At modern X-ray sources, such as synchrotrons and X-ray Free-Electron Lasers (XFELs), it is important to measure the absolute value of the photon energy directly. Here, a method fo…

Damage threshold in pre-heated materials exposed to intense X-rays

Nikita Medvedev, Zuzana Kuglerová, Mikako Makita +2

Materials exposed to ultrashort intense x-ray irradiation may experience various damaging conditions depending on the in-situ temperature. A pre-heated target exposed to intense x-…

Nanoscale subsurface dynamics of solids upon high-intensity laser irradiation observed by femtosecond grazing-incidence x-ray scattering

Lisa Randolph, Mohammadreza Banjafar, Thomas R. Preston +28

Observing ultrafast laser-induced structural changes in nanoscale systems is essential for understanding the dynamics of intense light-matter interactions. For laser intensities on…

Using Diffuse Scattering to Observe X-Ray-Driven Nonthermal Melting

N. J. Hartley, J. Grenzer, L. Huang +20

We present results from the SPring-8 Angstrom Compact free electron LAser (SACLA) XFEL facility, using a high intensity (W/cm) X-ray pump X-ray probe scheme to…

Single shot time-resolved magnetic x-ray absorption at a Free Electron Laser

Emmanuelle Jal, Mikako Makita, Benedikt Rösner +18

Ultrafast dynamics are generally investigated using stroboscopic pump-probe measurements, which characterize the sample properties for a single, specific time delay. These measurem…

Fabrication of diamond diffraction gratings for experiments with intense hard x-rays

Mikako Makita, Petri Karvinen, Vitaliy A. Guzenko +3

The demands on optical components to tolerate high radiation dose and manipulate hard x-ray beams that can fit the experiment requirements, are constantly increasing due to the adv…

Fast electron propagation in Ti foils irradiated with sub-picosecond laser pulses at Wcm

M Makita, G Nersisyan, K McKeever +10

We have studied the propagation of fast electrons through laser irradiated Ti foils by monitoring the emission of hard X-rays and K-α radiation from bare foils and foils backed by…
