The ionization dynamics of helium droplets resonantly excited by intence XUV radiation (10^12 W/cm^2) has been investigated. In this regime, a network of excited atoms is formed leading to all excited states collectively autoionizing where interesting effects such as nanoplasma and low energy electron formation and enhanced ionization rates were observed[1,2]. Here, we will present the first time-resolved measurements of such a system via XUV-UV pump-probe measurements where we see a clear time dependence on the nanoplasma formation.
