“…The ARIA photon beamline will be conceptually similar to the AQUA beamline, but due to the different energy ranges of the photons with different coatings and materials of the beam instrumentation, such as mirrors, filters, and gratings. 49 We expect higher overall transmission than the one in the AQUA beamline due to the higher reflectivity of the C-coated optics in the VUV range, the optics are now under study. Removable split-and-delay and monochromator systems will be available in the beamline.…”

“…The ARIA beamline can support a wide range of experiments in atomic, molecular, and cluster physics, as well as solid, liquid, and gas phase materials. 49 The ARIA energy range allows us to probe new electronic transitions well within the 7-20 eV range for classes of cluster materials such as nano-carbons 50 and potential gap dielectrics such as metal oxides using the ultra-fast pump-probe configuration. Photoemission spectroscopy, photo-electron circular dichroism, photo-fragmentation of molecules, and time of flight are examples of experimental techniques we intend to construct that provide powerful tools for investigating excited states such as excitons, polarons, and spin-charge-orbital ordering.…”

EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB is a new multi-disciplinary user-facility that is currently under construction at the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati of the INFN in the framework of the EuPRAXIA collaboration. The electron beam will be accelerated by an X-band normal conducting linac followed by a Plasma WakeField Acceleration (PWFA) stage. It will be characterized by a small footprint and it will drive two FEL beamlines for experiments, one in the VUV (50 to 180 nm) and the other in the XUV-soft x-rays (4 to 10 nm) spectral region. As an ancillary beamline, we are also including a betatron source in the x-ray from laser-plasma interaction. We present the status update of our facility.

“…This radiation facility is an essential component of the European EuPRAXIA project that intends to establish a plasma-accelerated FEL facility promising size and cost savings [58][59][60]. Two beamlines are planned: a seeded FEL in the VUV range 25-7 eV (50-180 nm) oriented to the study of atomic and molecular systems named ARIA [61], and an SASE SXFEL operating in the water window 310-200-eV (4-6 nm) named AQUA [62]. Their construction will expand FEL research and technology to new concepts and opportunities, also relying on the plasma-based acceleration.…”

The development of novel coherent and brilliant sources, such as soft X-ray free electron laser (FEL) and high harmonic generation (HHG), enables new ultrafast analysis of the electronic and structural dynamics of a wide variety of materials. Soft X-ray FEL delivers high-brilliance beams with a short pulse duration, high spatial coherence and photon energy tunability. In comparison with FELs, HHG X-ray sources are characterized by a wide spectral bandwidth and few- to sub-femtosecond pulses. The approach will lead to the time-resolved reconstruction of molecular dynamics, shedding light on different photochemical pathways. The high peak brilliance of soft X-ray FELs facilitates investigations in a nonlinear regime, while the broader spectral bandwidth of the HHG sources may provide the simultaneous probing of multiple components. Significant technical breakthroughs in these novel sources are under way to improve brilliance, pulse duration, and to control spectral bandwidth, spot size, and energy resolution. Therefore, in the next few years, the new generation of soft X-ray sources combined with novel experimental techniques, new detectors, and computing capabilities will allow for the study of several extremely fast dynamics, such as vibronic dynamics. In the present review, we discuss recent developments in experiments, performed with soft X-ray FELs and HHG sources, operating near the carbon K-absorption edge, being a key atomic component in biosystems and soft materials. Different spectroscopy methods such as time-resolved pump-probe techniques, nonlinear spectroscopies and photoelectron spectroscopy studies have been addressed in an attempt to better understand fundamental physico-chemical processes.

The development of novel coherent and brilliant sources, such as soft X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) and High Harmonic Generation (HHG) enables new ultrafast analysis of the electronic and structural dynamics of a wide variety of materials. Soft X-ray FEL delivers high brilliance beams with short pulse duration, high spatial coherence and photon energy tunability. In com-parison with FELs, HHG X-ray sources are characterized by a wide spectral bandwidth and few to sub-femtosecond pulses. The approach will lead to time-resolved reconstruction of molecular dynamics, shedding light on different photochemical pathways. The high peak brilliance of soft X-ray FELs facilitates investigations in nonlinear regime, while the broader spectral bandwidth of the HHG sources may provide the simultaneous probing of multiple components. Significant technical breakthroughs in these novel sources are under way to improve brilliance, pulse dura-tion, and to control spectral bandwidth, spot size, and energy resolution. Therefore, in the next few years, the new generation of soft X-ray sources combined with novel experimental tech-niques, new detectors, and computing capabilities will allow the study of several extremely-fast dynamics, such as vibronic dynamics. In the present review, we shortly discuss recent devel-opments in experiments, performed with soft X-ray FELs and HHG sources, operating near car-bon K-absorption edge, being a key atomic component in biosystems and soft materials. Differ-ent spectroscopy methods such as time-resolved pump-probe techniques, nonlinear spectrosco-pies and photoelectron spectroscopy studies have been addressed in an attempt of a better un-derstanding of fundamental physico-chemical processes
