Negative Pressures and Spallation in Water Drops Subjected to Nanosecond Shock Waves.

TL;DR: This work generates tension pulses with nanosecond rise times in water by reflecting cylindrical shock waves, produced by X-ray laser pulses, at the internal surface of drops of water, using a nucleation-and-growth model that explains how rapid decompression could outrun heterogeneous cavitation in water, and enable the study of stretched water close to homogeneous Cavitation pressures.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Development of a hard x-ray split-delay system at the Linac Coherent Light Source

TL;DR: A wavefront-splitting based hard X-ray split-delay system is currently under development at the Linac Coherent Light Source as mentioned in this paper, which uses a series of Si(220) crystal reflections in the horizontal scattering geometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pump–probe experimental methodology at the Linac Coherent Light Source

TL;DR: Techniques developed at LCLS to make optical laser pump–X-ray probe experiments both robust and easy to implement at ultrafast X-ray free-electron lasers are presented.
