Ultrafast Spectroscopy and Diffraction from XUV to X-ray

The fields of ultrafast spectroscopy and diffraction with high energy photons and electrons are poised to make big advances in experiment and theory as both table-top and large-scale user facilities continue to develop. The goal of this special topic is to highlight the cutting edge research being conducted by research groups all over the world using 10 eV - 20 keV photons and keV - meV electrons to study a wide range of problems in chemical physics from the gas to the condensed phase.
