Report on the Advanced Linear Collider Study Group (ALEGRO) Workshop 2026
L. Verra, P. Muggli, B. Cross +56
The 7th ALEGRO workshop, hosted by INFN Frascati National Laboratories from 3rd to 5th March 2026, brought together the international Advanced Novel Accelerators (ANA) community to…
Ultrafast excitation of Bloch plasmon polaritons in hyperbolic metamaterials with an extreme ultra-violet transient grating
Tlek Tapani, Hannes Kempf, Matteo Pancaldi +14
Manipulating materials properties with light drives advances in materials science and photonics. Hyperbolic metamaterials are promising candidates as next-generation quantum optica…
Energy density driven ultrafast electronic excitations in a cuprate superconductor
Alessandra Milloch, Francesco Proietto, Naman Agarwal +7
Controlling nonequilibrium dynamics in quantum materials requires ultrafast probes with spectral selectivity. We report femtosecond reflectivity measurements on the cuprate superco…
Time-domain extreme ultraviolet diffuse scattering spectroscopy of nanoscale surface phonons
F. Capotondi, A. Maznev, F. Bencivenga +18
We report the observation of dynamic fringe patterns in the diffuse scattering of extreme ultraviolet light from surfaces, following femtosecond optical excitation. At each point o…
Spin waves excited by hard x-ray transient gratings
Peter R. Miedaner, Alexei A. Maznev, Mykola Biednov +49
Recent progress in ultrafast x-ray sources helped establish x-rays as an important tool for probing lattice and magnetic dynamics initiated by femtosecond optical pulses. Here, we…
Transient laser-induced periodic surface structures revealed by time-resolved EUV diffuse scattering
D. Ksenzov, F. Capotondi, A. A. Maznev +12
The formation of permanent laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on solid surfaces under impulsive laser irradiation above the damage threshold has been subject of exte…
