Attosecond coincidence spectroscopy builds a powerful tool to study ultrafast phenomena in atoms and molecules. Here, we present an attosecond XUV pulse source with high repetition rates up to 100 kHz, developed for photoelectron/-ion coincidence spectroscopy. Near infrared (NIR) laser pulses with up to 400 µJ pulse energy and a pulse duration of around 300 fs are temporally compressed using a gas-filled hollow-core fiber. Afterwards we use these pulses to generate trains of attosecond pulses via high-order harmonic generation in noble gases. RABITT (Reconstruction of Attosecond Beating by Interference of Two-photon Transitions) based coincidence pump-probe spectroscopy is performed using a reaction microscope. The long acquisitions measurements require an ultrastable control of the delay between pump (XUV) and probe (NIR). A novel non-interferometric delay line enables intrinsic delay synchronisation within a few attoseconds over several hours. Our unique coincidence spectroscopy setup will enable the investigation of electronic and coupled electronic-nuclear dynamics. Thus, shedding new light on the first instants of photoionization and subsequent nuclear dynamics in small size molecules.
