Generation of femtosecond X-ray pulses via Thomson scattering of terawatt IR laser pulses with relativistic electrons

Not Accessible

Abstract

The generation of ultrashort x-ray pulses is of considerable interest for a variety of scientific applications. One important application is fee study of atomic motion in condensed matter that occurs on the fundamental time scale of a vibrational period (h/kT ~ 100 fs). In the past 25 years visible femtosecond laser pulses have been widely used to study the ultrafast electronic processes in materials.1 However, the study of structural dynamics in condensed matter with use of visible femtosecond pulses is limited, as atomic positions must be inferred from the optical response.
