XUV radiation for novel investigations of the matter in the temporal domain of few-femtoseconds and below

The technique for the generation of ultrafast pulses of extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) radiation is presented here as a tool for time-resolved interaction of radiation in the single-photon ionization regime. The intrinsic synchronization of the XUV with an IR pulse fosters to devise its application in a pump-probe scheme in this very interesting spectral...
