GOAL of TIMES: World class program on materials dynamics, aimed at understanding, non-equilibrium behavior and dynamics of charge, spin, lattice, and orbital degrees of freedom using advanced theory and light sources spanning THz to x-rays, e.g. LCLS & SSRL at SLAC and the ALS at LBNL. TIMES Software: Advanced theoretical codes and analysis tools for simulating and interpreting x-ray spectroscopies and workflow tools to facilitate calculations.
