Free-electron lasers produce extremely brief, coherent, and bright laser-like photon pulses
that allow to image matter at atomic resolution and at timescales faster than the …

High-harmonic generation provides an attractive light source of coherent radiation in the
extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) and soft-x-ray regions of the spectrum and allows for the …

The European XFEL is a hard X-ray free-electron laser (FEL) based on a high-electron-
energy superconducting linear accelerator. The superconducting technology allows for the …

Abstract The recently commissioned Linac Coherent Light Source is an X-ray free-electron
laser at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. It produces coherent soft and hard X-rays …

The use of particle accelerators as photon sources has enabled advances in science and
technology. Currently the workhorses of such sources are storage-ring-based synchrotron …

We report experimental results on x-ray diffraction of quantum-state-selected and strongly
aligned ensembles of the prototypical asymmetric rotor molecule 2, 5-diiodobenzonitrile …

This review is focused on free-electron lasers (FELs) in the hard to soft x-ray regime. The
aim is to provide newcomers to the area with insights into: the basic physics of FELs, the …

Recent advances in laser technology have pushed the frontier of maximum intensity
achieved to about 1022W/cm2 and investigators currently believe even higher intensities …

We present spatial coherence measurements of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light generated
through the process of high-harmonic up-conversion of a femtosecond laser. With a phase …

Dysfunction of the tubby protein results in maturity-onset obesity in mice. Tubby has been
implicated as a transcription regulator, but details of the molecular mechanism underlying its …
