Slovenia   For further information, related to Slovenian events, contact the Coordinator:   Society of Mathematicians, Physicists and Astronomers of Slovenia Dr. Jurij Bajc Email: [email protected]   Useful links: http://www.dmfa.si www.fizika2005.net   Events   An introductory event: a combination of sport show, physics, sketches, and music (at the beginning 2005) in order to attract the genral public’s attention A series of unspecialized lectures/talks for general public all over the country website: http://www.fizika2005.net after school activities involving many youngsters: - a signal transmission from one end of Slovenia to the other. It will most likely be a light signal. The idea is to use a laser pointer in the first school to light on a big white screen at a second school. As the laser spot is noted at the second school a laser pointer will be directed to the big white screen at the third school.... and so it will go on. As an alternative the church bells could be used. - the chain reaction experiment inspired by the MIT annual event by the same name. Here the idea is to build up a long chain of simple dynamical mechanical experiments, which have one common point. They must be initiated by the end of a previous experiment and they must initiate the next experiment bz finishing in a prescibed way. Exhibitions related to physics: across Slovenia in 2005 Media: - poster solution or question-answer pairs of A4 sized posters, displayed on the city and the intercity buses on a monthly basis. Each month a different pair will be displayed. - a series of unspecialized papers for general public in daily newspapers is planned on a fortnight frequency. Papers in magazines are planned as well. - a couple of thematic broadcasts in the scientific and popular shows on national TV - some advertising materials with WYPlogo (T-shirts, ball-point, pens, cups....)
