While the first diffraction order shows a monotonous behaviour as a function of time, with a sharp response at t=0, followed by a weak sub-picosecond component and a nearly constant signal thereafter, the time dependence of second diffraction order varies dramatically with the incident energy as it is tuned across the Co M-edge, with the appearance of a component at t>1 ps that grows with increasing energy. The results are rationalised in terms of the deviations of the initial grating from sinusoidal to non-sinusoidal, namely a flattening of the grating pattern, that introduces new Fourier components. These deviations are due to higher order, three-body terms in the population relaxation kinetics. These results highlight the use of the response of the second diffraction order in EUV TG as a tool to identify higher order terms in the population kinetics. date: 2024-05-07 date_type: published publisher: IOP Publishing official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1361-6455/ad421f oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2271080 doi: 10.1088/1361-6455/ad421f lyricists_name: Ingle, Rebecca lyricists_id: RINGL19 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics volume: 57 number: 11 article_number: 115401 issn: 0953-4075 citation: Marroux, Hugo JB; Polishchuk, Serhii; Cannelli, Oliviero; Ingle, Rebecca; Mancini, Giulia F; Bacellar, Camila; Puppin, Michele; ...
