| Abstract: | In this paper, we discuss recent advances in ultrashort-pulse X-ray technology. Femtosecond laser-plasma based X-ray sources can now generate sub-pico-second soft X-ray pulses, with photon energies from  10 eV to 106 eV, and with a high conversion efficiency of incident laser light to broadband X-rays. Recent advances in high-speed X-ray detectors and soft X-ray optics make it practical to use such sources as experimental tools for time-resolved X-ray science. Other possible generation techniques, such as laser-electron-beam scattering, promise to further expand the experimental capabilities in this area. |
