An Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) experiment showed a time-dependent nonuniform compression and expansion of a monocrystalline gold foil. This led to the time modulation of the Au Bragg peaks in both height and width that was measured by the experiment. The same effect is however not observed in polycrystalline gold. We thus perform Molecular Dynamics - Two Temperature Model (MD-TTM) simulations aiming to understand the results of the experiment. In our simulations, we obtain similar peak oscillations and determine the major mechanisms that lead to such lattice dynamics in the monocrystalline case and compare them with the polycrystalline case.
