Free, single, rotating superfluid 4He nanodroplets (diameter D = 200-2000 nm, temperature T = 0.4 K) containing a number of quantum vortices have been studied via ultrafast X-ray coherent diffraction imaging using a free electron laser. The droplets were doped with Xe atoms, which collect on the vortex cores and serve as a contrast agent. In order to obtain the instantaneous positions and shapes of the vortices from the diffraction images, a phase retrieval algorithm has been developed, which utilizes the droplet boundary as a physical support. The algorithm also uses the droplet's scattering phase as an input for the iterative phase reconstruction. The obtained reconstructions reveal a plethora of transient vortex configurations within the droplet. The details of the algorithm and the possible origin of the observed vortex configuration will be discussed.
