Abstract

The ability to visualize the real-time dynamics of atomic, magnetic, and electronic structure is widely recognized in many fields as a key element underpinning many important processes in chemistry, materials science, and biology. The need for an improved understanding of such processes becomes acute as energy conversion processes on fast time scales become increasingly relevant to problems in science and technology. This special issue, containing invited papers from participants at the 3rd International Conference on Ultrafast Structural Dynamics held June 10–12, 2015 in Zurich, Switzerland, discusses several recent developments in this area.

Highlights

  • The ability to visualize the real-time dynamics of atomic, magnetic, and electronic structure is widely recognized in many fields as a key element underpinning many important processes in chemistry, materials science, and biology

  • Timeresolved linear spectroscopy is widely applicable to a variety of systems, ranging from chemicals in a solution13,14 to warm dense matter

  • This special issue reports on some of the recent works in this area.19–21 Further advances in this area will likely prove essential as new experimental techniques are able to reveal ever more subtle aspects of dynamics of electronic, magnetic, and atomic structures
