Welcome to the BPS Belgian Physical Society website!

As a national physical society, and member of the European Physical Society, our goal is to promote physics and support physicists. For this purpose, we organise a range of activities and membership benefits. On these pages you will find information about membership, and about the BPS general meeting. Also archived issued of B-Phy, our electronic magazine, can be downloaded, and there is a job section for those of you seeking employment.

On Thursday, October 3, 2019, Prof. dr. Sandro Olivo from University College London, will report on the recent developments in x-ray imaging in his talk titled “Incoherent multi-modal implementations of phase-based x-ray imaging and tomography”. This colloquium is organised by the Antwerp section of Young Minds.

    The Antwerp Young Minds section has invited Prof Marc De Graef from Carnegie Mellon University to give a colloquium on Thursday 13 June 2019 at 4PM. More info and abstract on http://www.youngminds.uantwerpen.be/upcoming.

As every year the BPS offered several prizes to young scientists during the closing ceremony of the Scientific Meeting 2019. The winners of these prizes are:

• Best Master Thesis Prize in the academic year 2018-2019 (no ranking):

                Jeroen Hustings (UHasselt): "Investigation of High-Spin Isomers in Neutron-Rich Indium Isotopes Using Collinear Resonance Ionisation Spectroscopy"

              Tom Vieijra (UGent): "Machine learning approaches to strongly correlated spin systems"            

A nice picture to summarize a nice day.

Thanks to all the participants!
