The recent advent of hard x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) opens new areas of science due to their exceptional brightness, spatial coherence, and ultrashort pulse widths. In principle, such sources enable studies of dynamics of condensed matter systems over times ranging from femtoseconds to seconds. In this article, we review the studies of ultrafast atomic scale dynamics in various condensed matter systems mainly based on the pump-probe methods and the use of their coherent properties.
