We review current progress with respect to ultrafast, atomic-scale resolution X-ray scattering
studies of materials. In the last decade, advances in sources and techniques have opened …

X-ray microscopy has been an indispensable tool to image nanoscale properties for
materials research. One of its recent advances is extending microscopic studies to the time …

Photon-in-photon-out core level spectroscopy is an emerging approach to characterize the
electronic structure of catalysts and enzymes, and it is either installed or planned for intense …

The subject of this thesis is the operation of an electron storage ring at a low momentum
compaction to generate short electron bunches as a source for coherent synchrotron …

The enhanced high gain harmonic generation (EHGHG) scheme has been proposed and
shown to be able to significantly enhance the performance of HGHG FEL. In this paper we …

We report measurements of the transient structural response of weakly photo-excited thin
films of BiFeO 3, Pb (Zr, Ti) O 3, and Bi and time-scales for interfacial thermal transport …

LOCO has been a powerful beam-based diagnostics and optics control method for storage
rings and synchrotrons worldwide ever since it was established at NSLS by J. Safranek [1] …

This paper theoretically proves that an electron storage ring can generate coherent radiation
in the THz region using a quick kicker magnet and an AC sextupole magnet. When the …

This chapter describes how spectroscopic measurements differ when moving to x‐ray free
electron lasers (XFELs) and presents some examples of how these novel x‐ray sources …

We report the study of various beam dynamics issues arising from the scheme of using two-
frequency crab cavities to generate short pulse x-rays for timed-resolved experiments in a …
