Signatures of ballistic and diffusive transport in the time-dependent Kerr-response of magnetic materials

We calculate the influence of diffusive and ballistic transport on ultrafast magnetization in thick metallic films. When only diffusive transport is present, gradients of magnetization in the material remain up to picosecond timescales. In contrast, when ballistic transport dominates, the magnetizat...
