Probing warm dense matter using femtosecond X-ray absorption spectroscopy with a laser-produced betatron source
Understanding the ultrafast dynamics of materials under extreme conditions is challenging. Here the authors use a femtosecond betatron X-ray source to investigate the solid to dense plasma phase transition in copper using XAS with unprecedented time resolution.
