    Roadmap of ultrafast x-ray atomic and molecular physics
    (Bristol : IOP Publ., 2018-01-09) Young, Linda; Ueda, Kiyoshi; Gühr, Markus; Bucksbaum, Philip H.; Simon, Marc; Mukamel, Shaul; Rohringer, Nina; Prince, Kevin C.; Masciovecchio, Claudio; Meyer, Michael; Rudenko, Artem; Rolles, Daniel; Bostedt, Christoph; Fuchs, Matthias; Reis, David A.; Santra, Robin; Kapteyn, Henry; Murnane, Margaret; Ibrahim, Heide; Légaré, François; Vrakking, Marc; Isinger, Marcus; Kroon, David; Gisselbrecht, Mathieu; L’Huillier, Anne; Wörner, Hans Jakob; Leone, Stephen R.
    X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) and table-top sources of x-rays based upon high harmonic generation (HHG) have revolutionized the field of ultrafast x-ray atomic and molecular physics, largely due to an explosive growth in capabilities in the past decade. XFELs now provide unprecedented intensity (1020 W cm−2) of x-rays at wavelengths down to ∼1 Ångstrom, and HHG provides unprecedented time resolution (∼50 attoseconds) and a correspondingly large coherent bandwidth at longer wavelengths. For context, timescales can be referenced to the Bohr orbital period in hydrogen atom of 150 attoseconds and the hydrogen-molecule vibrational period of 8 femtoseconds; wavelength scales can be referenced to the chemically significant carbon K-edge at a photon energy of ∼280 eV (44 Ångstroms) and the bond length in methane of ∼1 Ångstrom. With these modern x-ray sources one now has the ability to focus on individual atoms, even when embedded in a complex molecule, and view electronic and nuclear motion on their intrinsic scales (attoseconds and Ångstroms). These sources have enabled coherent diffractive imaging, where one can image non-crystalline objects in three dimensions on ultrafast timescales, potentially with atomic resolution. The unprecedented intensity available with XFELs has opened new fields of multiphoton and nonlinear x-ray physics where behavior of matter under extreme conditions can be explored. The unprecedented time resolution and pulse synchronization provided by HHG sources has kindled fundamental investigations of time delays in photoionization, charge migration in molecules, and dynamics near conical intersections that are foundational to AMO physics and chemistry. This roadmap coincides with the year when three new XFEL facilities, operating at Ångstrom wavelengths, opened for users (European XFEL, Swiss-FEL and PAL-FEL in Korea) almost doubling the present worldwide number of XFELs, and documents the remarkable progress in HHG capabilities since its discovery roughly 30 years ago, showcasing experiments in AMO physics and other applications. Here we capture the perspectives of 17 leading groups and organize the contributions into four categories: ultrafast molecular dynamics, multidimensional x-ray spectroscopies; high-intensity x-ray phenomena; attosecond x-ray science.

    NFDI4Ing - the National Research Data Infrastructure for Engineering Sciences
    (Meyrin : CERN, 2020-09-25) Schmitt, Robert H.; Anthofer, Verena; Auer, Sören; Başkaya, Sait; Bischof, Christian; Bronger, Torsten; Claus, Florian; Cordes, Florian; Demandt, Évariste; Eifert, Thomas; Flemisch, Bernd; Fuchs, Matthias; Fuhrmans, Marc; Gerike, Regine; Gerstner, Eva-Maria; Hanke, Vanessa; Heine, Ina; Huebser, Louis; Iglezakis, Dorothea; Jagusch, Gerald; Klinger, Axel; Krafczyk, Manfred; Kraft, Angelina; Kuckertz, Patrick; Küsters, Ulrike; Lachmayer, Roland; Langenbach, Christian; Mozgova, Iryna; Müller, Matthias S.; Nestler, Britta; Pelz, Peter; Politze, Marius; Preuß, Nils; Przybylski-Freund, Marie-Dominique; Rißler-Pipka, Nanette; Robinius, Martin; Schachtner, Joachim; Schlenz, Hartmut; Schwarz, Annett; Schwibs, Jürgen; Selzer, Michael; Sens, Irina; Stäcker, Thomas; Stemmer, Christian; Stille, Wolfgang; Stolten, Detlef; Stotzka, Rainer; Streit, Achim; Strötgen, Robert; Wang, Wei Min
    NFDI4Ing brings together the engineering communities and fosters the management of engineering research data. The consortium represents engineers from all walks of the profession. It offers a unique method-oriented and user-centred approach in order to make engineering research data FAIR – findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-usable. NFDI4Ing has been founded in 2017. The consortium has actively engaged engineers across all five engineering research areas of the DFG classification. Leading figures have teamed up with experienced infrastructure providers. As one important step, NFDI4Ing has taken on the task of structuring the wealth of concrete needs in research data management. A broad consensus on typical methods and workflows in engineering research has been established: The archetypes. So far, seven archetypes are harmonising the methodological needs: Alex: bespoke experiments with high variability of setups, Betty: engineering research software, Caden: provenance tracking of physical samples & data samples, Doris: high performance measurement & computation, Ellen: extensive and heterogeneous data requirements, Frank: many participants & simultaneous devices, Golo: field data & distributed systems. A survey of the entire engineering research landscape in Germany confirms that the concept of engineering archetypes has been very well received. 95% of the research groups identify themselves with at least one of the NFDI4Ing archetypes. NFDI4Ing plans to further coordinate its engagement along the gateways provided by the DFG classification of engineering research areas. Consequently, NFDI4Ing will support five community clusters. In addition, an overarching task area will provide seven base services to be accessed by both the community clusters and the archetype task areas. Base services address quality assurance & metrics, research software development, terminologies & metadata, repositories & storage, data security & sovereignty, training, and data & knowledge discovery. With the archetype approach, NFDI4Ing’s work programme is modular and distinctly method-oriented. With the community clusters and base services, NFDI4Ing’s work programme remains firmly user-centred and highly integrated. NFDI4Ing has set in place an internal organisational structure that ensures viability, operational efficiency, and openness to new partners during the course of the consortium’s development. NFDI4Ing’s management team brings in the experience from two applicant institutions and from two years of actively engaging with the engineering communities. Eleven applicant institutions and over fifty participants have committed to carrying out NFDI4Ing’s work programme. Moreover, NFDI4Ing’s connectedness with consortia from nearby disciplinary fields is strong. Collaboration on cross-cutting topics is well prepared and foreseen. As a result, NFDI4Ing is ready to join the National Research Data Infrastructure.
