    Single-shot pulse duration monitor for extreme ultraviolet and X-ray free-electron lasers

    The resolution of ultrafast studies performed at extreme ultraviolet and X-ray free-electron lasers is still limited by shot-to-shot variations of the temporal pulse characteristics. Here we show a versatile s...
