Ultrafast spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) range is a powerful experimental tool for investigating ultrafast magnetisation dynamics, providing element-specific information and access to the non-equilibrium electronic density of states. Using reflection geometry, experimental observables also allow direct access to depth-dependent dynamics. In this study, we present the initial findings from a recently developed experimental setup optimised for broadband reflectometry of magnetic materials. Soft X-ray radiation is generated through highharmonic generation using 100 kHz, sub-10 femtosecond laser pulses produced by a fibre laser with a two-stage pulse compression scheme. A high-resolution spectrometer optimised for photon energies between 45 eV and 180 eV is mounted on a goniometer arm, allowing access to angles of incidence ranging from θ=0∘ to 80∘. The goal of this research is to resolve the ultrafast dynamics of spatial magnetisation profiles, spin currents, and spin accumulation within functional heterostructures.
