Leader of Group for Ultrafast and High-Field X-ray Science
We are carrying out research in the fields of compact ultrafast X-ray source development, ultrafast X-ray scattering and high-field, nonlinear X-ray matter interaction. We are working in close collaboration with UNL's Extreme Light Laboratory and its PetaWatt (PW) Diocles laser facility - one of the few PW laser systems worldwide.
