Ultrafast

The APS Ultrafast SIG is currently chaired by Burak Guzelturk and Insik Kim in the X-ray Science Division.
This group is 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".

Seminars are held virtually and announced via the Aps_resident_users mail list.

Meeting's agenda
Several beamlines at the APS involved in ultrafast pump-probe experiments
Recent APS workshops focused on ultrafast pump-probe experiments, or on the SPX project.
