Abstract :
We present Laue diffraction experiments using a fs laser plasma X-ray ultrashort pulse source as preliminary experiments for time resolved X-ray Laue diffraction. The Laue method in X-ray diffraction experiments employs an X-ray beam consisting of a range of wavelengths to illuminate a stationary crystal
