one being able to follow chemical reactions and phase transformations with
atomic spatial and temporal resolution. This dreamed experiment has been
entitled “Making the Molecular Movie” (1). Recent advances in ultrafast
time-resolved X-ray (2) and electron diffraction (1, 2) techniques have shown
that such a dream became real. During my talk I will present an overview of the
ongoing efforts put forward the development of ultrafast X-ray and electron
diffraction techniques for the study of structural dynamics of matter.
Femtosecond Electron Diffraction (FED) is a very promising table-top technique
competing head-to-head with kilometer-long facilities dedicated to the
production of fs X-ray pulses for the study of structural dynamics. I will
present recent results we have obtained by FED at <?xml:namespace prefix = st1
