Abstract
Laser heating of condensed matter is reviewed according to the temporal duration of the excitation. Differences in the various heating regimes are discussed and relevant diagnostics techniques are briefly illustrated, especially in connection with picosecond and femtosecond laser pulses. The recent results obtained with ultrafast excitation strongly suggest that the extreme condition of excitation of matter may be reached and diagnosed using these techniques.
