Strong Laser Pulses Help Control Ultrafast X-Rays

Electrons get excited and begin to move when they are hit by light. The motion of these electrons as they pass inside and between atoms in a material could be observed with the help of ultrafast x-ray pulses. Controlling ultrafast x-rays is still a difficult process even though scientists have made improvements recently at making ultrafast x-rays.
