description

Abstract We present recent results of time-resolved X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (TR-XPEEM) investigations on magnetic systems. Our studies of microstructured permalloy particles employ a magnetic pump XPEEM probe approach. The stroboscopic experiments feature a time resolution of Δ τ ≤ 130  ps and yield magnetic domain images with a surprising richness of details. We observe a strong influence of incoherent magnetization rotation processes, which lead to complicated transient domain structures with a blocked relaxation behavior.
