A unique instrumentation complex including wigglers, X-ray position sensitive detectors, diffractometers, and explosion chambers and enabling a 73 ps X-ray diffraction time resolution (exposure time) has been developed at the "Siberian Center of Synchrotron and Terahertz Radiation", a research collaboration operating at the G. I. Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, SB RAS. A number of techniques have been developed and implemented with which the investigation with nanosecond resolution of the nucleation and growth dynamics became for the first time possible for diamond and metal nanoparticles under explosion and shock wave conditions. Stress determination in rapidly laser heated metals; studies with millisecond resolution of the structural transformation dynamics of chemical reactions; the kinetics investigation of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis; and obtaining information on the state of catalysts are also among the new possibilities developed.
