Free Electron Laser Measurement of Liquid Carbon Reflectivity in the Extreme Ultraviolet
Abstract
1. Introduction
2. Results
3. Discussion

- (i)
- Three FEL pulses well before the arrival (unpumped reflectivity);
- (ii)
- One value followed very shortly after the pump pulse (pump-probe);
- (iii)
- One value 100 ms after the pump pulse (post damage reflectivity).
