Within this thesis two experiments will be described. In the first experiment a velocity filter was used to obtain a beam of polar molecules (ND3) with a translational temperature of less than 5K. For the first time the dynamics of individual rotational st ...
We describe a femtosecond photoelectron and photoion spectroscopy setup using a simple, novel way to produce a vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) probe pulse. We isolate the femtosecond VUV pulse from a high harmonic continuum by using the bandpass characteristics o ...
For dynamic samples and/or for simple ease-of-use experiments, single-image phase contrast tomography is a very effective method for the 3D visualization of materials which would otherwise be indiscernible in attenuation based x-ray imaging. With binary sa ...
Optical full-field techniques have a great importance in modern experimental mechanics. Even if they are reasonably spread among the university laboratories, their diffusion in industrial companies remains very narrow for several reasons, especially a lack ...
