HOPE – A new European Academic Network
The academic network Horizons of Physics Education [HOPE] was launched in October 2013. This three-year project is supported by the Life Long Learning Programme [LLP] of the European Union. It is the 6th thematic network in physics education in a series of networks beginning in 1995 with European Physics Education Network [EUPEN].
The 71 full partners are from 31 LLP-eligible countries of the European Union along with Norway, Serbia, Switzerland and Turkey; they comprise 65 academic partners and 6 non-academic partners including the European Physical Society. The…
Budapest hosted eminent speakers at the E2C conference
The 3rd European Energy Conference [E2C 2013], was held in Budapest, Hungary from 27-30 October 2013. The conference was organised by the Hungarian Chemical Society [HCS] in cooperation with the Eötvös Roland Physical Society [HPS], as well as the European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences [EuCheMS], the European Physical Society [EPS] and the European Materials Research Society [E-MRS].
The previous two versions of the European Energy Conference were held in 2010 in Barcelona, Spain, and in 2012 in…
A new European School in Instrumentation for Particle and Astroparticle Physics
Registration for the first edition of the European School in Instrumentation for Particle and Astroparticle Physics [ESIPAP] is now open.
ESIPAP was founded by the French laboratory of excellence ENIGMASS and offers advanced and intensive modular courses in instrumentation for students (Master and Ph.D.) and for professionals.
The School will take place at the European Scientific Institute [ESI] in Archamps, France, close to Geneva…
Researchers’ Night in Debrecen, Hungary
The University of Debrecen has been participating in European Researchers’ Night for many years. The Debrecen Young Minds section also participated, offering activities in five different themes.
In the park of the Nuclear Research Centre [Atomki], people could try the water bottle rocket built by a student in electric engineering. Not far from there under the attacks of giant bubbles one could submerge his/her hands into a big bowl of oobleck (a non-newtonian suspension of cornstarch and water). Entering the building a few students and…
