Photo-excited, hot electrons in multilayer thin films exhibit local and non-local dynamics which lead to relaxation and transport effects. The investigation of their interplay is so far mainly based on all-optical measurements. We present a novel tool for energy-resolved analysis of local and non-local relaxation dynamics in condensed matter. By using a back-pump/front-probe experimental configuration in femtosecond time-resolved, two-photon photoemission (tr-2PPE), we aim at separating these relaxation processes. The tr-2PPE intensity provides the relaxation time τ and the delay of the maximum intensity t*, and, thus, independent observables which we discuss in terms of inelastic relaxation and ballistic transport. We show first results for Au/Fe/MgO(001) and (i) τ as a function of energy EEF as well as Au thickness dAu and (ii) t* regarding energy-resolved transport velocities of hot electrons. The proportionality between t* and Au thickness points strongly towards ballistic transport. Our obtained velocities are in a good agreement with the literature values. This study was funded by the DFG through SFB1242.
