‘Seeing means believing’ as the old axiom says. Every year around 50 000 scientists worldwide use X-ray photon beams at synchrotron and X-ray Free-Electron Laser (XFEL) facilities to image the structure and motion of matter. X-ray studies on protein crystallography and X-ray driven catalysis in biomolecules became reality with the development of synchrotron light sources. The advert of XFELs...

Free-Electron Lasers are versatile research tools that provide powerful (up to TW-order) and short (down to sub-fs-order) X-ray pulses.
European XFEL is an international facility dedicated to deliver such pulses to usersIn this presentation I will introduce listeners to the basics of FEL Physics. We will discuss capabilities of the European XFEL facility in both nominal and special...

The FXE instrument enables ultrafast pump–probe experiments on timescales below 100 femtoseconds, catering to a broad scientific user community. FXE features two independent secondary X-ray emission spectrometers alongside a 1-Mpx detector for scattering studies. Its primary research focuses on the dynamic studies of chemical and biochemical reactions in liquids, as well as various solid-state...

The atomic structure of the thin Fe layer after sub-ps pulsed laser annealing has been studied by time-resolved X-ray diffraction [1]. The laser pulse energy is transferred to the lattice within about 1 ps due to the strong electron-phonon coupling. This rapid heating leads to ultrafast melting. However, solid-solid structural transformations occur below the threshold of complete melting. At...
