Simulated pump—probe Bragg diffraction.
(a) Electric field of the laser pulse. (b) Scattering probabilities into first-order Bragg spots as functions of the arrival time of a 1-fs electron pulse with a mean electron kinetic energy of 30 keV. The maximum intensity change is 1–2%. (c) Scattering probabilities for the second-order Bragg spots. The maximum intensity change is 0.05–0.2%. The inset schematically shows the first Brillouin zone and the positions of the Bragg spots, which are coloured in the same way as the curves in panels (b,c).
