  abstract  = {We implemented an experimental scheme for ultrafast x-ray diffraction at storage rings based on a laser-driven Bragg-switch that shortens the x-ray pulses emitted from an undulator. The increased time-resolution is demonstrated by observing changes of intensity, position and width of the diffraction peaks of a La(0.7)Sr(0.3)MnO(3)/SrTiO(3) superlattice sample after optical excitation, i.e., by quantitatively measuring the propagation of an expansion wave through the sample. These experimental transients with timescales of 35 to 60 ps evidence a reduction of the x-ray pulse duration by a factor of two.},

  abstract  = {We report on synchrotron-based high-repetition rate ultrafast x-ray diffraction (UXRD) experiments monitoring the transport of heat from an epitaxial La(0.7)Sr(0.3)MnO(3)/SrTiO(3) superlattice (SL) into the substrate on timescales from 100 ps to 4 mu s. Transient thermal lattice expansion was determined with an accuracy of 10(-7), corresponding to a sensitivity to temperature changes down to 0.01 K. We follow the heat flow within the SL and into the substrate after the impulsive laser heating leads to a small temperature rise of Delta T = 6 K. The transient lattice temperature can be simulated very well using the bulk heat conductivities. This contradicts the interpretation of previous UXRD measurements, which predicted a long-lasting expansion of SrRuO(3) for more than 200 ps. The disagreement could be resolved by assuming that the heat conductivity changes in the first hundred picoseconds.},
