Experiments on femtosecond laser excited gold nanoparticles are presented and it is shown, that the structure formation of the particles is induced by a non-thermal ablation process, which is induced by the strong local enhancement of the laser field close to the particle surface [1]. Time-resolved x-ray scattering allowed to discriminate the structural manifestations of the excitation process, such as particle heating, melting and relaxation with the environment [2].
