Abstract

The impressive technological advances in the generation of ultrashort XUV and soft X-ray light pulses have triggered the quest for novel techniques, able to characterize these pulses in the temporal domain. In this chapter we will present and discuss the most important methods for temporal pulse characterization, with particular emphasis on attosecond pulses generated by high-order harmonics and on femtosecond soft X-ray pulses emitted by free electron lasers.
