DESCRIPTION:Christoph P. Hauri\, PSI\, EPFL\nThe Terahertz frequency range
  (0.1-10 THz) hosts numerous collective modes like phonons\, magnons\, ele
 ctromagnons and attempts to excite them selectively by THz radiation have 
 been undertaken in the past. Recent advance in Terahertz source developmen
 ts towards higher intensity opens now new perspectives towards controlling
  optical\, magnetic and electronic properties of matter also in non-resona
 nt conditions.\nIn this talk I will introduce the currently most powerful 
 Terahertz laser source developed at the Paul Scherrer Institute [1] and wi
 ll discuss experimental evidence for THz-induced strong-field effects obse
 rved in a ferromagnetic thin film and semiconductors unraveling magneto-op
 tical and electro-optical phenomena on a sub-cycle timescale [2-4].\nRefer
