abstract = {Short-wavelength free-electron lasers are now well
established as essential and unrivalled sources of
ultrabright coherent X-ray radiation. One of the key
characteristics of these intense X-ray pulses is their
expected few-femtosecond duration. No measurement has
succeeded so far in directly determining the temporal
structure or even the duration of these ultrashort pulses in
the few-femtosecond range. Here, by deploying the so-called
streaking spectroscopy technique at the Linac Coherent Light
Source, we demonstrate a non-invasive scheme for temporal
characterization of X-ray pulses with sub-femtosecond
resolution. This method is independent of photon energy,
decoupled from machine parameters, and provides an upper
bound on the X-ray pulse duration. We measured the duration
of the shortest X-ray pulses currently available to be on
average no longer than 4.4 fs. Analysing the pulse
substructure indicates a small percentage of the
free-electron laser pulses consisting of individual
high-intensity spikes to be on the order of hundreds of
attoseconds.},
