SYUF: Ultra-fast Dynamics in FEL Light Pulses

SYUF 2: SYUF II

SYUF 2.1: Invited Talk

Wednesday, March 4, 2009, 16:30–17:00, VMP 8 HS

Pump-probe experiments at FLASH — •Stefan Düsterer — DESY, Hamburg, Germany

The free-electron laser FLASH is a unique tool to explore ultra-high intense XUV region. Besides the unrivalled intensity, the ultra-short pulse duration of only 10fs- 50 fs enables a wide field of time-resolved experiments. Several different pump-probe schemes have been implemented in the last years at FLASH. Besides XUV+XUV and the novel XUV+THz option, so far mainly XUV+optical pump-probe experiments have been performed. Besides a short overview of the various developments of the pump-probe infrastructure the talk will mainly focus on recent results of time-resoled experiments combining the FLASH-XUV radiation with optical femtosecond pulses.
