- This paper describes the scientific aims and potentials as well as the preliminary technical design of RUDE, an innovative tool for multi-disciplinary investigations in a wide field of scientific, technological and industrial applications. IRIDE will be a high intensity "particles factory", based on a combination of high duty cycle radio-frequency superconducting electron linacs and of high energy lasers. Conceived to provide unique research possibilities for particle physics, for condensed matter physics, chemistry and material science, for structural biology and industrial applications, IRIDE will open completely new research possibilities and advance our knowledge in many branches of science and technology. [RIDE is also supposed to be realized in subsequent stages of development depending on the assigned priorities.

- Experimental characterization of the structural, electronic and dynamic properties of dilute systems in aqueous solvents, such as nanoparticles, molecules and proteins, are nowadays an open challenge. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is probably one of the most established approaches to this aim as it is element-specific. However, typical dilute systems of interest are often composed of light elements that require extreme-ultraviolet to soft X-ray photons. In this spectral regime, water and other solvents are rather opaque, thus demanding radical reduction of the solvent volume and removal of the liquid to minimize background absorption. Here, we present an experimental endstation designed to operate a liquid flat jet of sub-micrometre thickness in a vacuum environment compatible with extreme ultraviolet/soft XAS measurements in transmission geometry. The apparatus developed can be easily connected to synchrotron and free-electron-laser user-facility beamlines dedicated to XAS experiments. The conditions for stable generation and control of the liquid flat jet are analyzed and discussed. Preliminary soft XAS measurements on some test solutions are shown.

- We use femtosecond extreme ultraviolet pulses derived from a free electron laser to excite and probe surface acoustic waves (SAWs) on the (001) surface of single crystal SrTiO3. SAWs are generated by a pair of 39.9 nm pulses crossed at the sample with the crossing angle defining the SAW wavelength at 84 nm. Detection of SAWs is performed via diffraction of a time-delayed 13.3 nm probe pulse by SAW-induced surface ripples. Despite the low reflectivity of the sample in the extreme ultraviolet range, the reflection mode detection is found to be efficient because of an increase in the diffraction efficiency for shorter wavelengths. We describe a methodology for extracting the SAW attenuation in the presence of a thermal grating, which is based on measuring the decay of oscillations at twice the SAW frequency. The proposed approach can be used to study ultrahigh frequency SAWs in a broad range of materials and will bridge the wave vector gap in surface phonon spectroscopy between Brillouin scattering and He atom scattering.
