Ultrafast Special Interest Group

Eric Dufresne, APS (SIG webmaster and mailing list questions)
Jin Wang, APS (Agenda)

This group organized on the theme of "Science and techniques that use the pulsed structure of the APS to study time-resolved phenomenon from a few picoseconds to microseconds".
The group meets once a month on the third Thursday of the month from noon to 1h15PM, in the 432C conference room.
