Title :
Generation of subpicosecond x-ray pulses in storage rings
Author_Institution :
LBNL, Berkeley
Abstract :
Supicosecond X-ray pulses are routinely produced at ALS,BESSY and SLS with "slicing" technique and used in pump-probe experiments with controlled delay between laser pump pulses and X-ray probe pulses. New development aiming for a production of a subpicosecond X-ray pulses using rf orbit deflection technique is under way at APS. Both techniques will be reviewed here.
