  We describe an experiment aimed at measuring the spin dynamics of the Fe8
single-molecule magnet in the presence of pulsed microwave radiation. In
earlier work, heating was observed after a 0.2-ms pulse of intense radiation,
indicating that the spin system and the lattice were out of thermal equilibrium
at millisecond time scale [Bal et al., Europhys. Lett. 71, 110 (2005)]. In the
current work, an inductive pick-up loop is used to probe the photon-induced
magnetization dynamics between only two levels of the spin system at much
shorter time scales (from ns to us). The relaxation time for the magnetization,
induced by a pulse of radiation, is found to be on the order of 10 us.
