USTC-Yunnan 2017

Prof. Petek went to China to collaborate with Prof. Jin Zhao and her group at USTC, and to look for a site for the Ultrafast Surface Dynamics 11 conference to be held in 2019. He was joined on a trip to Yunnan province by Zhao’s students from USTC, who kept him out of trouble and were great companions.
