The relaxation dynamics in graphene is of key importance for understanding the basic material properties as well as for high-frequency electronic and opto-electronic device applications. In addition to single colour pump-probe experiments in the THz range (photon energy: 14-30 meV) without magnetic field, we performed experiments at a photon energy of 18 meV in magnetic fields up to 1.34 T. For photon energies larger than twice the Fermi energy (approx. 10 meV) positive pump-probe signals were observed while for smaller photon energies pump-induced absorption occurred due to carrier heating. Relaxation times were around 30 ps. At magnetic fields around 0.23 T the pump-probe signal increases by a factor of 2.5. At this field the splitting of the zeroth to first Landau level is resonant with the photon energy.
