PREFACE

PREFACE

Foreword of the President of the Hungarian Academy of SciencesElőszó*A Nemzetközi Fizikai Olimpia történetét és eddigi nyerteseit mutatja be ez a kötet, amely
kemény munkával és kreativitással elért eredmények НТМsĪsцРФѓnвvО. A lengyel Czeslaw
Scislowski professzor által 1967-ben elindított naРвsгОrű kezdeményezés hazánkban
Nemzetközi Fizikai Diákolimpia néven honosodott meg. E nemes versengés eredményeit
Waldemar Gorzkowski és Tichy-Rács Adám РвűjtѓttцФ össze és rendezték kötetbe.
A könyv felütésekor ОХsĪrО hosszú névsorok és visszaemlékezések ötlenek a szemünkbe. A
nyertesek nevei nem csupán a fizikával kapcsolatban ХцvĪФnОФ érdekesek, hanem atudományos teljesítményekre büszke honpolgárok számára is.
A természettudományokban kétségtelenül a fizika uralta a huszadik századot, különösen
annak ОХsĪ felét. Az emberi ФцpгОХĪОrĪt próbára tцvĪ, a világról való gondolkodásunkatátalakító

eredmények

születtek,

amelyek

egy

része

a

századmásodik

feléreközgondolkodásunk részévé vált. Az atomok, atommagok és az atommag alkotóelemeinek
felfedezése, a relativitáselmélet, a kvantummechanika, a tranzisztor, a lézerek - hogy csak
néhányat említsek - СĪsѓФФц tették a fantasztikus felismerésekben rцsгtvОvĪФОt. Biztosra
vehetjük, hogy ebben az ТНĪbОn igen magas volt a fizika presztízse, ha nem is készült ОrrĪХ
felmérés.

Számosországiskoláiban

A magyar fizikusok az egész világ által elismerten nagy szerepet játszottak a modern fizika
létrejöttében. Ez jОХОntĪs mértékben a világszerte nagyra értékelt Wigner JОnĪnОФ, Szilárd
Leónak, Teller Edének és társainak ФѓsгѓnСОtĪ. Legalább ilyen mértékben ФѓsгѓnСОtĪ ez aszázad nagy tanáregyéniségeinek, akik közül e kötet kapcsán ОХsĪsorban Kunfalvi RОгsĪ tanár
urat szeretném kiemelni, aki Ortvay Rudolf mellett a fenti nagyságokkal, nagyságoktól tanulta
a modern fizikát, s középiskolai tanárként is цХĪ kapcsolatban volt a fizikai kutatások
frontvonalában dolgozókkal.

PREFACE

Ahogyan az Olimpia РвĪгtОsОТ szinte СĪsФцnt jelentek meg az ünnОpХĪ közönség ОХĪtt, úgyebben az ТНĪbОn a szellemi vetélkedés e sajátos területén érmet nyert fiatalokat is СĪsѓФФцnt
köszöntöttük a Fizikai Diákolimpián.
Magyar fizikusként és akadémiai elnökként lapozgatva ezt a könyvet különös érzés kerít
hatalmába. Az elsĪ Fizikai Diákolimpián szereplĪk ma hatvan év körüliek. Sokan lettek
közülük ismert alakjai a világ tudományos életének. Az elsĪ olimpia abszolút nyertese Szalay
Sándor, a debreceni intézetalapító fizikaprofesszor Szalay Sándor fia, aki ma – inkább Alex
Szalayként ismert – világhírű fizikus, Akadémiánk tagja. De ott vannak az elsĪ évekhelyezettjei között Ormos Pál és Mihály László akadémikusok, Maróti Péter a Szegedi
Tudományegyetem professzora, hogy a Diákolimpiák elsĪ korszakából említsek néhány olyan
nevet, akik mára a fizikai kutatások meghatározó személyiségeivé váltak.
Szegeden, a József Attila Tudományegyetemen évfolyamtársam volt Iglói Ferenc - ma az
MTA doktora -, akinek problémamegoldó képességét csodálattal figyeltük, és aki az 1971-esszófiai Fizikai Diákolimpián harmadik helyezett lett.
Saját generációmtól eltávolodva örömmel látom, hogy a fiatalabbak közül is sokukat
ismerhetem mint egyetemi tanárt, megbecsült kutatót, az MTA doktorát. A még fiatalabbak
között számosan vannak, akikkel ФТОЦОХФОНĪ tОСОtsцРű fiatal kutatóként ismerkedhettem megés néhányukat magam is tanítottam a Debreceni Egyetemen.
E személyes ismeretségek alapján megfogalmazódik bennem, milyen naРвsгОrű eszköze is atehetség kibontakoztatásának az ilyen szellemi ОrĪПОsгъtцsrО sarkalló, az ОrĪПОsгъtцssОХ arányos
elismerést adó verseny, mint a Fizikai Diákolimpia. E szellemi versengés kitartó és kemény
munka eredményeként hozott sikert, tartós sikert a РвĪгtОsОФnОФμ nem csupán azt a naРвsгОrű
pillanatot adva nekik, amikor az eredményhirdetéskor РвĪгtОsФцnt ünnОpОХtцФ ĪФОt itthon és avilágban, hanem a megismerés élményével ajándékozva meg ĪФОt, s azzal, hogy megtanultak
logikusan gondolkodni, keményen dolgozni és kételkedni.
A magyar diákok Fizikai Diákolimpiákon elért sikerei mögött mindig ott volt egy vagy több
odaadó tanár munkája. Remélem, hogy az Ī példájukon és diákjaik sikerein erĪre kapva
kimozdulhatunk fizikaoktatásunk mai nem könnyű helyzetébĪl, és úgy a diákolimpiák mint ahétköznapok fizikaóráinak „vОrsОnвpпХвпjпn” újra és újra megálljuk helyünket.

PREFACE

PrefaceThis book, one of honour to be gained by hard work and creativity, presents a historyof, and the list of students winning at, the International Olympics of Physics. Launched in1967 by Polish Professor Czeslaw Scislowski, this splendid initiative became known in
Hungary as the International Student Olympics of Physics. The results of the noble
competition involved throughout the years have been gathered and made into a book by
Waldemar Gorzkowski and Ádám Tichy-Rács.
On opening the book one encounters long lists of names and reminiscences. The
names of those winning are of interest not only to those engaged in physics but also tocompatriots who are proud of scientific achievements.
In the natural sciences, it was undoubtedly physics that had dominated the 20th
century, especially its first half. Testing human imagination, transforming our knowledge
about our world, the achievements born in the first half of the 20th century have become partand parcel of our present thinking. Atoms, nuclei and their components, the theory of
relativity, quantum mechanics, the transistor, lasers – to mention only a few – have made thepersons involved in those discoveries veritable heroes. Even though we have no survey data
available, we can be certain that in those times the prestige of physics was exceptionally high.
Some excellent teachers were busy pushing their highly gifted students to face the enormous
intellectual challenges of this particular branch of science.
Hungarian physicists have played an universally acknowledged role in the inception ofmodern physics, a feat due in large part to Eugene Wigner, Leo Szilard, Ede Teller and hiscolleagues. An equal part had been played in this, however, by the great teacher personalitiesof the 20th century. In regard to this book I only want to underline the activities of RОгsĪ
Kunfalvy who, along with Rudolf Ortvay, had acquired much of his knowledge from the great
Hungarian physicists listed above, and maintained a lively contact with those active in thefrontline of modern physics even while working as a secondary school teacher.
Professor Kunfalvy had also played an active role, in collaboration with his Polish andCzech colleagues, in establishing the International Olympics of Physics, a fact shown alreadyby the second Olympics taking place in Budapest.
Rather like Olympic medallists, the young people winning medals at this special kindof intellectual competition, the International Olympics of Physics, were also hailed as heroes

PREFACE

by the public.
Leafing through this book as a Hungarian physicist and as President of the Hungarian
Academy of Sciences, I am overwhelmed by a strange sensation. Those competing at the first
International Olympics of Physics are all around 60. Many of them have become well-known
figures of the аorХН’s science. The absolute winner of the first International Olympics ofPhysics, Sándor Szalay, the son of Professor Sándor Szalay, the founder of our Debrecen
Research Institute of Physics, is better known nowadays as Alex Szalay, the world-famous
physicist who is also a member of our Academy. But also included among the first ПОа вОars’
medallists are members of our Academy Pál Ormos, László Mihály as well as Szeged
University Professor Péter Maróti – persons who have since all become authoritative
personalities of research in physics.
I attended the same classes at Szeged University with Ferenc Iglói, nowadays a Doctorof our Academy, whose problem-solving capacities we all admired, and who earned third
place at the 1971 International Physics Olympiad in Sofia.
Even as I leave my own generation as represented on those lists, I recognise manyother, younger physicists well-known to me as university professors, recognised researchers,
Doctors of our Academy. From among those who are still younger, I know quite a few whom
I have met as promising talents, or whom I have even taught at Debrecen Universitry.
On the grounds of those personal acquaintances I am driven to acknowledge what anexcellent tool of inspiring talent the International Olympics of Physics really is. Probably
because the recognition it provides is strictly in proportion with the intellectual effort it
requires. Those winning a medal can not only enjoy the moments of victory but also theexperience of new knowledge gained, an experience based on logical thinking, hard work, andthe ability to doubt.
Behind the victories of Hungarian students at the International Olympics of Physics
we could always detect the self-sacrificing work of one or several teachers. I sincerely hopethat the examples set by those teachers and their successful pupils will inspire us all toovercome the present difficult situation of our physics education – helping us all in achieving
better results not just at the forthcoming rounds of the International Olympics of Physics but
also at our physics classes taking place each day of the week.

PREFACE

Foreword of the absolute winner of the first IPhO

The International Physics Olympiad

When I participated in the first Physics Olympiad in 1967, I hardly knew what physics
was beyond the thrill of the first hand experience of seeing how pieces of interesting puzzles
fit together. But even then solving these problems represented a quest, seeking answers tochallenging problems, within the scope of our tools at the age of 18. There was quite a longroad leading to the Olympics, solving countless problems, not because of the Olympics (after
all when I was in high school it did not even exist) but just for the thrill of the challenge.
Along the road we met our like-minded fanatics, who shared our interest in understanding thephysical world. We slowly understood that we are not alone and unique with our interests,
there are other kids like us who are keen to think for hours or days about the solution of a hard
problem. We learned that there are others beyond our school, beyond our hometown, in other
cities and other countries who think like us. We learned that physics transcends boundaries.
We also learned that there are other smart people and our common interests can form a specialbond.
During the preparation we met generations ahead of us, people who were already at
the University, either as students, or already on the faculty, who volunteered their time to takeus farther along the journey. Their shared the secrets of physics beyond the high school levelwith us. And by solving math or physics problems with a well-defined solution, we learned
that even in societies where politics often intertwined academia, there can be an absolute
truth, and you can either solve a problem or not.
As I read the manuscript of this book, and looked at the list of names, I was amazedhow many of these are familiar from conferences and papers. I felt a thrill, how many of thephysicists I know have been winners of the Physics Olympiad, from Canada, Russia, the US,
and of course my native Hungary. It is clear, from a distance of 43 years that this was a truelife-forming experience. The spirit of the International Physics Olympics makes it also veryclear, how truly international physics is.

PREFACE

But looking through this book made me think – not what the Physics Olympics did forthe participants, but of the people who dedicated a large fraction of their lives in training us.
They have spent years of their lives in training the next teams, year after year. They could
have written many scientific papers had they chosen that path. When we assess how importantdifferent contributions to the world of physics are, the people who coached our teams have
had an impact and influence that is rarely thanked or recognized. I would like to use thisforeword to thank their countless hours and dedication – and dedicate this book to tСОЦ…

PREFACE

Foreword of the author
In the 5th International Physics Olympiad in 1971, there were just thirty threeparticipants from seven teams. That time we hardly spoke foreign languages and could not
make acquaintances with members of other teams. Anyhow, that event had major impressionin us and great effect on our lives.
One year ago I decided to organize an alumni meeting of the 5th IPhO on the 40th
anniversary and then I started searching my fellow contestants. I could quickly find my
Hungarian team mates, because I knew their names exactly, although not all of them areeasily traceable in the net. Then I could find some ex-Soviet and ex-Czechoslovak
competitors. Later on I contacted the IPhO Secretariat, and I got a copy of the relevant pages
from Professor Waldemar żorгФoаsФв’s book “TСО Winners of 1st-30th International Physics
OХвЦpТaН”. It is an excellent and very important compilation, but I had to realize its
shortcomings that needed revision very much. The original work was compiled fromhandwritten notes taken by different persons, sometimes in Russian, in Bulgarian or in
Serbian that is in Cyrillic and in modified Cyrillic scripts. The compiler obviously had noexperience in transcription foreign names, and did not have internet access that time to makecorrection. So my name became “AНaХО TТМСв” from “ÁНпЦ Tichy-RпМs” through “” misread as “”, that is quite simple in Cyrillic handwriting. Similarly, mostof non-Polish names were mistyped in that work. Moreover, in some cases the teams of someparticipants were wrong. From some IPhOs the lists did not contain given names but initials.
The sequence of surnames and given names changed randomly from IPhO to IPhO. (Thelatter still needs corrections.) The original work also needed extension with the results of thelast ten events.
The revision and extension took nearly a year, spending hundreds of hours surfing the
net and searching different databases, sending 320 e-mails, receiving 160 e-mails, finding tensof new friends who helped me. I suppose, this new version of the compilation is still far frombeing perfect.
This volume is simply the 2010 version of the collected information. It begins withgeneral data on IPhOs, its Secretariat, the list of team leaders, the Statute of IPhO, the shorthistory and short life stories of four pioneers of IPhO movement. The voХuЦО’s major part isWorking with the lists I had to realize that there were severeal former winners among the team leaders in 2009.

PREFACE

simply printed form of a database, of course. (The database version will be also available,soon.) The data are sorted by IPhOs in the first set of lists and they are sorted first bycountries and then IPhOs in the second one. There is a special selection of the absolutewinners, another chapter shows participants who won awards in four consecutive IPhOs andthe next one with data of three times awarded competitors. Then the data in the lists are
summarized in some statistical tables. The volume ends with the webography andbibliography of IPhOs. The literature is not complete, but hopefully it will help further
research. For this reason it contains not just IPhO related web pages in different countries but
also translations of the expression “IntОrnatТonaХ Physics OХвЦpТaН” in several languages. The
appendix contains the copies of two documents from the 5th IPhO.
According to my hopes this book will be a starting point of several further activities. I
intend to revise it again with the help of team leaders and with librarians of different
countries. In the next stage, as a part of the next revision, I intend to collect the partТМТpants’names both in their original script and in English transcription. Then I intend to make followup studies with life stories of IPhO participants – there are several world leading scientists
among them.
I still hope that I will be able to convene alumni meetings, including alumni IPhOs
using the same test problems that the actual young competitors receive. My really long term
goal is to organize an IPhO alumni network that can help young talents in the beginning of
their careers.

In recognition of the growing significance of physics in all fields of science and technology,
and in the general education of young people, and with the aim of enhancing the developmentof international contacts in the field of school education in physics, an annual physics
competition has been organised for secondary school students. The competition is called theInternational Physics Olympiad and is a competition between individuals.
§2
The competition is organised by the Ministry of Education, the Physical Society or anotherappropriate institution of one of the participating countries on whose territory the competition
is to be conducted. The organising country is obliged to ensure equal participation of all thedelegations, and to invite teams from all those countries that participated during the last three
years. Additionally, it has the right to invite other countries. The list of such new countries
must be presented to Secretariat of the IPhOs (# 8) at least six months prior to thecompetition. Within two months the Secretariat has the right to remove, after consultations
with the Advisory Committee (# 8), from the suggested list the teams that in opinion of
Secretariat or Advisory Committee do not meet the criteria of participation in the IPhOs. The
new countries not accepted by the Secretariat or Advisory Committee may, however,participate as "guest teams" but such participation does not create any commitments withrespect to inviting these countries to the next competition(s).
No country may have its team excluded from participation on any political reasons resulting
from political tensions, lack of diplomatic relations, lack of recognition of some country by
the government of the organising country, imposed embargoes and similar reasons. Whendifficulties preclude formal invitation of the team representing a country students from such a
country should be invited to participate as individuals.
The competition is conducted in the friendly atmosphere designed to promote futurecollaborations and to encourage the formation of friendship in the scientific community.
Therefore all possible political tensions between the participants should not be reflected inany activity during the competition. Any political activity directed against any individuals or
countries is strictly prohibited.
§3
Each participating country shall send a delegation, normally consisting of five students(contestants) and two accompanying persons (delegation leaders) at most.

28

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSThe contestants shall be students of general or technical secondary schools i.e. schools whichcannot be considered technical colleges. Students who have finished their school
examinations in the year of the competition can be members of the team as long as they havenot commenced their university studies. The age of the contestants should not exceed twenty
years on June 30th of the year of the competition.
The delegation leaders must be specialists in physics or physics teachers, capable of solving
the problems of the competition competently. Each of them should be able to speak English.
§4
The Organisers of the Olympiad determine in accordance to the programme the day of arrivaland the day of departure as well as the place in their country from which the delegations aresupposed to arrive and depart. The costs for each delegation as a result of activities connectedto the Olympiad from the day of arrival till the day of departure are covered by the Organising
Committee.
§5
The competition shall be conducted over two days, one for the theoretical examination and
one for the experimental examination. There will be at least one full day of rest between theexaminations.
The theoretical examination shall consist of three theoretical problems and shall be of five
hours total duration.
The experimental examination shall consist of one or two problems and shall be of five hours
total duration.
Contestants may bring into the examination drawing instruments and non-programmablepocket calculators. No other aids may be brought into the examination.
The theoretical problems should involve at least four areas of physics taught at secondary
school level, (see Syllabus). Secondary school students should be able to solve thecompetition problems with standard high school mathematics and without extensive
numerical calculation.
The competition tasks are chosen and prepared by the host country and have to be accepted by
the International Board (§ 7).
The host country has to prepare at least one spare problem, which will be presented to theInternational Board if one of the first three theoretical problems is rejected by two thirds ofmembers of the International Board. The rejected problem cannot be considered again.
§6
The total number of marks awarded for the theoretical examination shall be 30 and for theexperimental examination 20. The competition organiser shall determine how the marks areallocated within the examinations.
After preliminary grading (prior to discussion of the grading with the delegation leaders) theorganizers establish minima (expressed in points) for Gold Medals, Silver Medals, Bronze
Medals and Honourable Mentions according to the following rules:

29

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSa) Gold Medals should be awarded to 8% of the contestants (rounded up the nearest
integer).
b) Gold or Silver Medals should be awarded to 25% of the contestants (rounded up thenearest integer).
c) Gold, Silver or Bronze Medals should be awarded to 50% of the contestants (roundedup the nearest integer).
d) An Olympic Medal or Honourable Mention should be awarded to 67% of thecontestants (rounded up the nearest integer).
The minima corresponding to the above percentages should be expressed without rounding.
The suggested minima shall be considered carried if one half or more of the number of theMembers of the International Board cast their vote in the affirmative.
Results of those candidates who only receive a certificate of participation should strictly
remain to the knowledge of the Members of the International Board and persons allowed toattend its meetings.
§7
The governing body of the IPhO is the International Board, which consists of the delegation
leaders from each country attending the IPhO.
The chairman of the International Board shall be a representative of the organising country
when tasks, solutions and evaluation guidelines are discussed and the President of the IPhO in
all other topics.
A proposal placed to the International Board, except Statutes, Regulations and Syllabus (see §10), shall be considered carried if more than 50% of all delegation leaders present at themeeting vote in the affirmative. Each delegation leader is entitled to one vote. In the case ofequal number of votes for and against, the chairman has the casting vote. The quorum for ameeting of the International Board shall be one half of those eligible to vote.
The International Board has the following responsibilities:a) to direct the competition and supervise that it is conducted according to theregulations;b) to ascertain, after the arrival of the competing teams, that all their members meet therequirements of the competition in all aspects. The Board will disqualify thosecontestants who do not meet the stipulated conditions;c) to discuss the Organisers' choice of tasks, their solutions and the suggested evaluation
guidelines before each part of the competition. The Board is authorised to change orreject suggested tasks but not to propose new ones. Changes may not affectexperimental equipment. There will be a final decision on the formulation of tasks andon the evaluation guidelines. The participants in the meeting of the International
Board are bound to preserve secrecy concerning the tasks and to be of no assistance toany of the participants;d) to ensure correct and just classification of the students. All grading has to be acceptedby the International Board;

leaders. The invitation should specify the place and time of the Competition plus the addressof the organising secretariat.
Countries wishing to attend the current IPhO must reply to the invitation before March 15,
nominating a contact person. Each participating country must in addition supply the hostcountry with the contestants' personal data (surname, given name, sex, address, date of birthand address of school) by May 15 or as soon as possible.
The host country is only obliged to invite delegations from countries that participated in oneof the last three competitions. It may refuseapplications for participation from any other country

applications from participating countries not belonging to the delegation as defined in§3 (observers, guests).

Each country should, within five years of entry, declare its intention to host for a future
Olympiad, suggesting possible years. A country that is unable to organise the competition
may be prevented from participating in IPhOs by decision of the International Board.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSInternational Physics Olympiads (IPhO):
their history, structure and futureThis document has been written by Prof. Waldemar Gorzkowski, President of theInternational Physics Olympiads, and has been taken from:"International Physics Competitions: International Physics Olympiads and First Step toNobel Prize in Physics", ed. by Waldemar Gorzkowski, Warszawa 1999.
1. Short history of International Physics Olympiads
The International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) is an international physics competition forsecondary school students. The first such competition was organised by Prof. Czesław
cisłowski in Warsaw (Poland) in 1967. Since that time the International Physics Olympiads
have been organised, with few exceptions that will be discussed later, in a different country
every year.
The possibility of organising the International Physics Olympiads was suggested before 1967.
It was clear that the International Physics Olympiads should be an annual event like theInternational Mathematics Olympiad, which was already in existence; organised in 1959. The
success of the International Mathematics Olympiads, and the positive experience gained fromits organisation, greatly stimulated physicists involved in physics education and interested incomparison of knowledge of the best students from different countries. The hard work anddedication of three Professors deserves particular praise: Czesław cisłowski from Poland,
Rostislav Košťál from Czechoslovakia and Rezső Kunfalvi from Hungary. Each of theminvestigated various possibilities of organising the first International Physics Olympiad in his
country. It was concluded that Poland offered the best conditions and the most favourable
atmosphere for such an event. This, together with a great personal contribution by Prof.
Czesław cisłowski, resulted in the first international physics competition that took place in
Warsaw in 1967.
One should underline here an essential difference between the International Mathematics
Olympiads and the International Physics Olympiads. At the International Physics Olympiads
the participants solve not only theoretical problems but also the experimental problems. For
this reason the organisation of the competition in physics is more complicated and more
expensive.
Several months before the first IPhO took place, invitations were sent to all the Central
European countries. The invitations were accepted by Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary andRomania (five countries including Poland, the organiser of the competition). Each teamconsisted of three secondary school students accompanied by one supervisor. The competition
was arranged along the lines of the final stage of the Polish Physics Olympiad: one day fortheoretical problems and one day for carrying out an experiment. One obvious difference wasthat the participants had to wait for the scripts to be marked. During the waiting period theorganisers arranged two excursions by plane to Kraków and to żНańsФ. At the first IPhO thestudents had to solve four theoretical problems and one experimental problem.
The second Olympiad was organised by Prof. RezsĪ Kunfalvi in Budapest, Hungary, in 1968.
Eight countries took part in that competition – The German Democratic Republic, the Soviet
Union and Yugoslavia joined the participating countries. Again, each country was represented
by three secondary school students and one supervisor. Some time before the second IPhO apreliminary version of the Statutes and the Syllabus were produced. Later these documents
41

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

were officially accepted by the International Board consisting of the supervisors of the teams
that participated in the competition. This took place during a special meeting organised in
Brno, Czechoslovakia, several months after the second IPhO. It is proper to underline that, inspite of various changes to be made later, all the basic features of the first Statutes remain
valid to this day.
The third IPhO was arranged by Prof. Rostislav Košťál in Brno, Czechoslovakia, in 1969. Onthat occasion each team consisted of five students and two supervisors. The competition in
Brno was organised according to the official Statutes accepted earlier.
The next Olympiad took place in Moscow, Soviet Union, in 1970. Each country was
represented by six students and two supervisors. During that Olympiad several small changes
were introduced into the Statutes.
Since the fifth IPhO, held in Sofia, Bulgaria, in 1971, each team has consisted of five pupils
and two supervisors.
The sixth IPhO was held in Bucharest, Romania, in 1972. It was an important event because
among the participants there were present for the first time, the first non-European country(Cuba) and the first Western country (France). At this Olympiad the International Board
decided to introduce several changes into the Statutes (however, no written proposal of thechanges was produced).
Unfortunately, in 1973 there was no Olympiad as no country was willing to organise it,although the number of participating countries exceeded the number of the past Olympiads.
When it seemed likely that the International Physics Olympiads would die, Poland took the
initiative of reviving the international competition and organised the seventh IPhO in Warsaw
in 1974 (for the second time). On this occasion the Federal Republic of Germany was invited
to attend the competition for the first time. This fact certainly had a symbolic significance.
Before the competition, the Organising Committee introduced into the Statutes the verbal
changes discussed and accepted in Bucharest. The new version of the Statutes was sent to all
the countries invited to the competition for acceptance or comments. The wording suggestedby the Organising Committee was accepted (with only one voice against). The most importantchanges were as follows:a) the number of theoretical problems was reduced from four to threeb) the number of working languages (previously Russian, English, German and French
was reduced to two, English and Russianc) there should be one rest day between the two examination daysd) the criteria for prizes should be expressed in percentages with respect to the highest
score received in a given competition (formerly range of mark for prizes had been
determined with respect to the highest theoretically possible score).
In 1975, 1976 and 1977 the International Physics Olympiads took place in the German
Democratic Republic for the first time, Hungary, for the second time, and Czechoslovakia, forthe second time, respectively.
In spring 1977 in Ulan-Bator, Mongolia, there was a Conference of the Ministers of
Education of the, so called, Socialist Countries. The Conference decided that the socialist
countries would organise the International Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics Olympiads
42

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

every two years. Some people treated this decision as a political one, aiming to reduce
contacts between pupils from East and West. This aspect should not be ignored, but certainly
the decision was a consequence of the increasing number of participating countries andrapidly increasing organisational costs. Regardless of real reasons, according to common
interpretation the above decision was commonly interpreted as an implicit invitation to othercountries to take charge of the international scientific Olympiads. This explains why in 1978
and in 1980 there were no Olympiads; no non-socialist country was ready to organise thecompetition without a prior, necessary long-time preparation effort. The first IPhO organised
by non-socialist country was the XIII IPhO that took place in Malente, FRG, in 1982. It wasdue to very efficient work done by Dr. Gunter Lind. Then, for the first time, the participants
solved, under agreement of the International Board, two experimental problems in place ofone, previously set.
In 1983 the IPhO was organised, for the second time, in Bucharest, Romania. Here thenumber of problems prepared by the organisers for the pupils much exceeded the number ofproblems mentioned in the Statutes, and the International Board spent a lot of time discussing
the Statutes and the Syllabus and the future of the Olympiads.
As regards the future of the International Physics Olympiads, there was only one important
decision made in Bucharest. It was decided that the next competition would take place inSweden in 1984. Unfortunately, there were no volunteers to organise the Olympiads in 1985,
1986 and 1987. In such a situation, upon suggestion of Dr. Gunter Lind (FRG), theInternational Board decided to establish a permanent Secretariat (consisting of one person:
Dr. Waldemar Gorzkowski) for co-ordination of the long term work of the International
Physics Olympiads and for popularising the Olympiads. At the same time it was decided that
the Secretariat together with Prof. Lars Silverberg (Sweden), the organiser of the nextcompetition in Sigtuna, Sweden, in 1984, should prepare a new version of the Statutes.
The project of revising the Statutes was completed and the new Statutes were accepted at theninth IPhO. There are, in fact, only minor differences between the old and new versions. The
most essential difference is that the new version legalised the existence of the Secretariat ofthe International Physics Olympiad, consisting of two persons (in terminology used recently:
President and Secretary - Dr. Waldemar Gorzkowski and Dr. Andrzej Kotlicki1). Anotherchange instituted was that at the experimental part of the competition the participants could be
set one or two experimental tasks, earlier only one was allowed. One can say that the newversion differed from the old one primarily in wording. The new version was much more
precise.
The delegation heads, consisting of two persons from each participating country, form the, so
called, International Board, which is the highest authority of the International Physics
Olympiads. The International Board does not change significantly from year to year. The
majority of members know each other very well. In the International Board there is a very
pleasant, friendly atmosphere. Thanks to this attitude, and good will, many difficult problems
can be solved without great effort. This is why the Secretariat was able, for instance, to solve
the problem of organisation of the International Physics Olympiads in 1985, 1986 and 1987.
In 1985 the International Physics Olympiad took place in Portorož (Yugoslavia), in 1986 - inLondon-Harrow (Great Britain) and in 1987 - in Jena (GDR).

Dr. Andrzej Kotlicki (Poland - Canada) after three five вОars’ terms (1984 - 1999) has resigned from his
function. In 1999 Dr. Maija Ahtee (Finland) has been elected as the Secretary.

43

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

Here we would like to emphasise that the United Kingdom organised the XVII IPhO in
London-Harrow within only two years from its entry into the competition! It was madepossible through hard work and great enthusiasm of Dr. Cyril Isenberg, Dr. Guy Bagnall and
Mr. William Jarvis.
Due to joint efforts of the Secretariat and the organisers of the competitions in 1985 (Prof.
Anton Moljk and Dr. Bojan Golli) and in 1986 (Dr. Guy Bagnall and Dr. Cyril Isenberg) a
new version of the Syllabus was produced. Its theoretical part was accepted in Portorož in1985 and first applied in London-Harrow in 1986. Later, following a suggestion of theInternational Board, the Secretariat prepared a new, so called, column version of the Syllabus.
This version shows not only the breadth of the physics contents but also the depth of approachrequired. The Syllabus of the International Physics Olympiads is indeed very modern.
Nevertheless, the International Board is always ready to introduce improvements in the
Statutes and Syllabus and does this when necessary.
The competition has run every year subsequently - the list of participating and organisingcountries is shown in Tables 1 and 2.
Following suggestion of Dr. Rodney Jory (Australia) in 1996 the International Board has
decided to create an Advisory Committee convened at the President. At present the Advisory
Committee consists of 14 persons with great experience in the “OХвЦpТaН аorФ”.
Every year some changes in the Statutes are made. Usually they are minor changes.
Nevertheless, sometimes the changes are major. The last such change was made in 1999. The
Statutes have been split into two parts; proper Statutes, and Regulations. Changes in the partcalled “StatutОs” require qualified majority when voting, while changes in the part called“RОРuХatТons” require a simple majority only. In this way the most important points of the“OХвЦpТaН Хaа” have been separated from the points which are of less importance. The
operation of splitting the Statutes was the most important change since 1984 and was takenwith care. The idea of splitting, formulated by Dr. Rodney Jory (Australia) in 1997, after
preliminary discussion (almost only by e-mail) in 1997/8 was accepted by the International
Board in 1998 in Reykjavik, Iceland. Then a subcommission consisting of four persons wascreated: Dr. Gunter Lind, Dr. Cyril Isenberg, Dr. Vidar Agustsson and Dr. Waldemar
Gorzkowski. The subcommission prepared, mainly due to work of Dr. Gunter Lind, a versionof the split Statutes, which later was discussed at a special meeting of the Advisory
Committee in Warsaw in March 1999. After that the version accepted by the Advisory
Committee was accepted by the International Board at the thirtieth IPhO in Padova, Italy.
The last versions of the Statutes, Regulations, Syllabus and other Olympiad documents areavailable from the homepage of IPhOs.
Here we would like to highlight the efficient functioning of the Secretariat due to not only topersonal efforts of its members but also to the assistance of the members of the International
Board. It is proper to mention here the help of Dr. Gunter Lind (FRG), Prof. Helmuth Mayr
(Austria), Prof. Lars Silverberg (Sweden), Prof. Lars Gislen (Sweden), Mr. Nicola Velchev(Bulgaria), Dr. Hans Jordens (The Netherlands), Dr. Dwight Neuenschwander (USA), andothers.
2. Structure of the competition
The competition lasts for two days. One day is devoted to theoretical problems (threeproblems involving at least four areas of physics taught in secondary schools). Another day is

44

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

devoted to experimental problems (one or two problems). These two days are separated by atleast one day of rest. On both occasions the time allotted for solving the problems is five
hours. Each team consists of students from general or technical secondary schools (notcolleges or universities). Typically each team consists of five students (pupils) and two
supervisors. The latter form the International Board. It would make no sense to repeat here thedescription of the competition as it may be found in the Statutes of the International Physics
Olympiads.
We would like to underline several important features:
1. The problems are given to the pupils in their national languages and the pupils solve theproblems in their mother tongues; IPhO is a competition in physics, not in foreign languages.
2. The marks awarded by the organisers are compared with the marks awarded by thedelegation heads, and discussed by the organisers and delegation heads until an agreed markhas been reached. In this way justice of classification is ensured.
3. According to the present version of the Statutes the winners are classified into categories
according to the following rules:
The mean value of points accumulated by the three best participants is considered normalised
to 100%.
The contestants who obtain more than 90% of the above mentioned mean value receive firstprizes. The contestants who obtain between 78% and 90% receive second prizes. The
contestants who obtain between 65% and 78% receive third prizes. The contestants who
obtained between 50% and 65% receive commendations called honourable mentions. Allother participants receive certificates of participation. The participant with the highest score(Absolute Winner) receives an additional prize.
Some special prizes can also be awarded. We would like to emphasize that the number ofprizes in each category is not limited. Due to that, changes of some scores might occur as aresult of discussion between the heads of the delegations and the markers, resulting in a
"shift" of some participants from, for example, the group of second prize winners to the groupof first prize winners. However, these changes won't affect the category of the prize of any
other participants. Thus, the delegation leaders representing different countries do notcompete against each other. This is a very important point.
You may ask: what about a team classification? The answer is very simple: such aclassification does not exist. The IPhO is a competition between individuals only. There is noteam result. Nevertheless, some people try to establish a kind of unofficial team classification.
Some of them take a direct sum of scores as the result of the team. Some of them take the sumof scores of the three best participants in each team. Some of them take, for each team, thethree best results in each problem independently and so on, and so on. Of course, the final
table depends on the method of calculating the team results, and probably one can always findsome strange system of counting the team results that will show a team to be the best or oneof the best ones. Non-existence of team classification is important. We do not wish to
introduce rivalry between nations.
The financial principles of the organisation of the competition are the following: the country which sends the team pays for the return travel costs (to and from theplace of the competition) of the pupils and the accompanying persons;45GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS from the moment of arrival until the moment of departure all the costs are covered by
the organising country. In particular, this concerns the costs of local travels, lodging,excursions, awards, etc.
Recently the International Board considered several times different proposals aiming to
introduce certain participation fee. Taking into account different financial possibilities ofdifferent countries, in 1997 a voluntary fee was introduced. It seems, however, that in the
future the voluntary fee will be converted into an obligatory fee.
The number of participating countries is, however, continually increasing. In 1999 62
countries were present (Table 1). Every year new countries join the competition andorganisation of the competition becomes more and more expensive. Moreover, it is more andmore difficult to organise the experimental part of the competition so that all the students
have the same experimental conditions of work.
We can ask: what will be the maximum number of countries? How long can the number ofparticipating countries increase without any changes (assuming the same structure of thecompetition)? Should we start thinking about "Olympiad Villages"?
Until now the organisers were always able to solve all the organisational problems related tothe increasing number of participants. Some time ago I was sure that the maximum number ofcountries present at a given Olympiad would not exceed sixty. But in the meantime certain
political processes took place, such as the break up of the Soviet Union, the break up of
Yugoslavia, etc. In consequence of them many new countries were created. Most of them areinterested in participation in the IPhO. Now it seems that the number of countries reallyinterested in the IPhO shall not exceed eighty or ninety. Eighty countries with five students
from each country, comes to 400 experimental stands. This is a very great number. Somecountries, however, are able to provide such a number of identical experimental stands. Other
countries can organise the experimental problem in two groups.
Can this number, i.e. 80-90, be reached? Theoretically, yes. But practically, probably not. The
travel expenses (and possible participation fee that may be introduced in the future) can limit
the number of participants. Many countries may not be able to send their teams to thecompetition every year for financial reasons. The number of participating countries willprobably oscillate around eighty, depending on where the organising country is situated. This
will not require "Olympiad Villages".
Organisation of the IPhO is becoming increasingly very difficult. The difficulties are diverse.
I am not going to describe all of them. Nevertheless, I would like to give one simple example:
languages. The marking of the solutions (written in national languages) is performed by theOrganising Committee which is responsible for correct translation. For the languages spoken
by a number of countries, such as English, German, French or Spanish, there are no serious
difficulties. Also there are no difficulties in the case of nations or countries with a great
diaspora (e.g. Poland). But in the case of certain minority languages (e.g. Finnish, Icelandic,etc.) the organisers sometimes face great problems. Fortunately, all the possible mistakes
made during the marking procedure can be corrected at the verification sessions with thedelegation leaders, although sometimes this is time consuming. Nevertheless, the problem oflanguages seems to be very difficult and probably some changes in the Statutes will benecessary.
In the context of the above mentioned "saturation" effects related to limited possibilities of theorganisers (financial and technical) and limited possibilities of the participants (travel
46

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

expenses, possible participation fee in the future) it makes sense to consider an idea ofregional physics Olympiads. This idea is not new. Some time ago the Balkan Physics
Olympiad was created. It involved the, so called, Balkan countries in Europe. As far as I
know at least three such Olympiads were conducted. In 1992 the first Iberoamerican Physics
Olympiad was organised (in Colombia). It is a Physics Olympiad for countries speaking
Spanish or Portuguese. Unfortunately, for other reasons (insufficient international cooperation, certain financial and organisational problems) the second such Olympiad wasorganised only in 1997 (in Mexico). Shortly before the Gulf War the Gulf Physics Olympiad(for the Arab countries situated at the Arab Gulf) was organised. As far as I know, until now
four such Olympiads were conducted.
It seems that the Asian region was the only region without such initiatives. I am absolutely
sure that in the near future an Asian Physics Olympiad will be created. I am also sure that theeducational role of such an Olympiad for this region will be extremely great as all such events
strongly affect education. Additionally, this kind of peaceful co-operation creates better
understanding between countries and between people, especially between young people whowill decide about our prosperity in the future.
3. Degree of difficulty of the Olympiad problems
The competition tasks of several initial International Physics Olympiads were not overly
difficult. They were similar to more difficult school tasks. Later the difficulty of thecompetition tasks was increased. It is not easy to measure difficulty of the competition tasks. I
know two approaches to this problem.
First of them was made by Galina Seregeyevna Tarasyuk [1]. She defined a coefficient ofdifficulty k of the task as a quantity proportional to the ratio of the maximum possible score to
the mean score gained by the participants. In a similar way she defined a degree of difficultyof a whole Olympiad. Her statistics involved ten first competitions. The quantity introduced
by Galina Seregeyevna Tarasyuk seems to be quite good. It, however, cannot be applied torecent Olympiads since the International Board has decided that the results of the participants
who have not received any prize or honourable mention cannot be presented publicly. In
consequence the mean value of the scores gained by the participants is not known. The second
approach is due to Barbara and Rudolf Gau [2]. They introduced another parameter A as ameasure of the, so called, requirement level. The definition of this parameter is too
sophisticated to quote it here. Nevertheless, it seems quite interesting to show how theparameter A changes in time - Fig. 1 shows the dependence of A for twenty first International
Physics Olympiads. Note the rapid increase in the period 1986 - 1989. (Unfortunately, nobody
investigated A for more recent competitions.)

47

Fig. 1. Requirement level A (vertical axis) vs. no. of the Olympiad (horizontal axis).
One should realise that any way of measuring the "difficulty" of the Olympiads has only anapproximate character. The best measure should involve such "parameters" as: formulation of
the problem, length of the texts of the problems (sic! - some problems are unexpectedly long),
possibilities of solving the problems in different ways, creativity of the problems, spectrum ofknowledge tested by the problems, etc., etc. Each of these "parameters" in general is not welldefined. Moreover, each of them should be taken with some weight, which is not well definedeither.
4. Efficiency of participation of different countries in the competition
As we have already mentioned, there is no official team classification - the Statutes of the
Olympiads do not define any team results. Nevertheless, many countries participating in theInternational Physics Olympiads are interested in some measure of success of their teams over
the years. Sometimes such a measure is necessary for them in order to estimate the efficiency
of different forms of work. Of course, one may introduce different parameters describing"efficiency" of participation. Proper measure should involve difficulty of the competition
problems, quality of grading, quality of translations, etc., etc. In general it is a very difficult
problem. This is why we suggest (as a 0-th approximation) to use the parameter defined
below the Table 3 [4]. The table contains the statistical data for thirty International Physics
Olympiads organised until now (see also Table 4 and Table 5 ). Of course, in case ofcountries that participate infrequently in the competition, this parameter is not good forfluctuations.
5. Interpretation and role of results obtained at the competition
The results of the competition are treated in different countries in different ways. In somecountries, in some periods, they are or were treated as a kind of great national achievement:
the participants pass a special, very intensive, training before the competition and later thewinners receive great privileges. But it seems that such an approach is rather not typical. Mostof countries treats the Olympiad as a kind of measuring instrument that measures the state ofphysics education. Of course, one success or lack of success has no special meaning. It may
be a fluctuation. But successes or lack of successes for several years should be treatedseriously. This is why the results of the competitions are analysed seriously. The same refers
to the competition problems, the Syllabus, etc. In consequence of these analyses somecountries improved their national syllabuses on physics by introducing new approaches (e.g.
in thermodynamics), new topics (e.g. relativity, quantum physics), or by reducing some parts

48

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

of too traditional character (e.g. geometric optics). Such changes are an additional result of theInternational Physics Olympiads, additional with respect to the tables of the competition
winners. Certainly in a long term scale this result is more important than the names of thewinners, as any improvements in the physics education affect all the pupils.
It is obvious that the existence of the International Physics Olympiads itself is a result ofcertain international co-operation. More important is a long term international co-operation
between the members of the International Board. This kind of co-operation has existed since
the very beginning, i.e. since the first IPhO. The members of the International Board
exchange physics problems, books, journals, articles, they discuss their experience gained
during organisation of the national physics competitions etc., etc. Due to such permanent, or
semi-permanent, contacts and due to existence of the International Physics Olympiads somecountries have organised national physics Olympiads or, at least, smaller scale competitions
for selecting the teams to attend the international competition.
Nearly all the participating countries in the IPhO provide special training for the participants.
Of course, too intensive training may deform the results. (After a long and intensive training
even an elephant may dance to the tune of the piper, but certainly that has nothing to do with
the natural abilities of the elephant and one may suspect that the elephant would not be too
happy at that!). In consequence of an extra intensive training the results may not reflect real
abilities of the students. Also they do not reflect the true state of the physics education. One
should say, however, that most of the countries approaches to the problem in a rational way.
The training periods etc. in different countries is presented in Table 6.
6. Final remarks
The impact of the International Physics Olympiads is continually growing. The role of theInternational Physics Olympiads is recognised also by such international organisations as
UNESCO and the EPS (European Physical Society).
The first contacts with UNESCO took place way back, in 1968, but more extensive cooperation began in 1984. In the period 1984 - 1991 UNESCO supported financially the
publication of the proceedings of the of the subsequent Olympiads. The proceedings were
distributed to all the countries-members of UNESCO. It gave us favourable publicity. In
addition, UNESCO has published several books on the physics Olympiads in various
languages.
The help of UNESCO was very valuable, especially in propaganda. Unfortunately, its
financial contribution to organising the competitions was negligible.
One should realise, however, that the purposes of UNESCO and other internationalorganisations are not identical with the purposes of the International Physics Olympiads(although often many points are common). For example, by forcibly increasing the number ofparticipating countries one can cause very serious organisational problems. The organisers of
the recent Olympiads encounter many difficulties of technical and financial character. To
make the work of the organisers somewhat easier, in 1997 a voluntary fee paid by theparticipants was introduced. This fee covers part of the organisational expenses and is a goodstarting point for raising money from possible sponsors. In order to ensure smoothorganisation, the increase in the number of participants in the International Physics Olympiad
should be controlled. Otherwise organisation of the IPhO could collapse.

Like UNESCO, the EPS gives us very strong moral support as well as favourable publicity,and propagates our achievements among the countries-members of the EPS. It was the EPS
that inspired us in preparation and publication of the booklet entitled Procedures for Selecting
Teams to the International Physics Olympiads [3]. The booklet comprises a compilation ofreports of different delegations and is very important and helpful for the countries wishing tojoin the competition. The booklet was prepared by the Secretariat together with Prof. Lars
Silverberg and published by him privately in Lund (Sweden). In 1989 the EPS created analmost permanent special prize for the winner of the Olympiad for reaching the best
equilibrium between the theoretical and experimental parts of the competition.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSThe Medal

In 1992 the International Physics Olympiads were awarded with the ICPE Medal. We quote
the text associated with the medal (the text was received from Prof. Anthony French):„TСТs medal was established in 1979 by the International Commission on Physics Education(I.C.P.E.), which is Commission C-14 of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics(I.U.P.A.P.). The medal is awarded for outstanding contributions to physics education. The
first recipient was Eric M. Rogers, in 1980. Subsequent recipients were Pyotr L. Kapitza in
1981, Jerrold R. Zacharias, in 1984, Victor F. Weiskopf in 1986 and John L. Lewis in 1988.
In 1992 the medal was awarded to the International Physics Olympiad. with special
recognition of Rotislav Kostial (Brno), Rudolf Kunfalvi (Budapest) and Czeslaw Scislowski(Warsaw). Professor Scislowski was the chief originator of the Physics Olympiads. He had
extensive discussion and consultation with physicists from other countries (in particular withProfessors Kostial and Kunfalvi), but it was primarily as a result of his efforts that the firstPhysics Olympiad was held in Poland in 1967 under the aegis of the Polish Physical Society.
The medal is transferred each year to a representative of the host country for the following
year.
The medal was designed by the Hungarian artist Miklos Borsos. The design represents theinteraction of human beings with forces of nature. It shows the four elements of the ancient
Greeks - earth, air, fire and water - this last symbolized by a powerful ray of sunlight, like asword. People are at first afraid of these forces, but then begin to make use of them - we see
one person lighting a ПТrО.”

Czesław Ścisłowski – in service of science
Physicist, teacher, university professor. He was born in Mogielnica on 22-04-1904. Hisparents are Franciszek įcisłowski and Franciszka Podgórska. After the elementary
school of Mogielnica he went to the Władysław Giļycki Grammar School in Warsaw.
After two years at the Electrical Engineering Faculty of the Warsaw Technical
University he continued his studies at the Mathematics and Science Faculty of the
Warsaw University, where he graduated in 1930. In the next two years he worked for
the Public Teachers Seminary in Polock as a teacher and supervisor in the internee. In
1934 he graduated as a teacher and started to teach at the Adam Mickiewicz Grammar
School, then taught at the Stefan Batory Grammar School and Lyceum and at the Eliza
Orzeszkowa Pedagogical Lyceum in Warsaw. In the late hours he continued his
research under the supervision of Professor Stefan Pieńkowski at the Department ofExperimental Physics of the Warsaw University. In the school year of 1938/1939 he
was the teacher of the “CoХuЦbus РОnОratТon” at the Stefan Batory Grammar Schooland Lyceum, among his students there were Jacek Bytner ("Rudy") and Tadeusz
Zawadzki ("Zoİka"), who became famous soldiers of the Warsaw Patriotic Army and of
the Polish partisan movement.
From 01-01-1940 to 01-02-1945 he worked at the elementary school of Komorów near
Pruszków, as well as in the underground groups of the J. SłoаaМФТ Grammar School and
Lyceum, of the Stefan Batory Grammar School and Lyceum, and of the T. Czacki
Grammar School and Lyceum. From 01-02-1945 to 01-09-1947 he taught physics at the
Stefan Batory Grammar School and Lyceum, and he was the vice director for one year
there. He worked hard for restoration of the school building and reorganization of
education. Meantime, he taught at the part time school for workers under ul. Polna 5. He
was appointed to assistant lecturer to the Warsaw Technical University on 01-10-1947.
He led the Physics Section of Further Education of Educational Experts in Wojewódzki
District and also held lectures there.
In 1952 he was appointed lecturer and two years later assistant professor at the Facultyof Engineering Technology. From 1953 to 1955 he taught physics as lecturer at the
Military Academy of the General Staff of Polish Army named after Karol
Swierczewski. He received PhD at the Faculty of Pedagogy of the Warsaw University
in 1959. He worked actively till the end of his life. He did not want to retire. He
combined education with organization of scientific activities. He did very much for the
propagation of physics. He authored more than 70 papers, books, lecture notes andmethodical publications. He wrote reports about the International Physics Olympiads,
conferences in physics, brochures about the life of famous physicists and chemists. His
53

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

physics textbooks for 6th-8th scholar years were reprinted several times. His most
famous paper is entitled “źnОrРв of physical pСОnoЦОna” (1969). He participated inmethodical development of physics education. He was member of many scientificcommittees. From 1951 he organized 18 Physics Olympiads and in 1967 he organized
the International Physics Olympiad in Warsaw with participation of Bulgarian,Czechoslovakian, Polish, Russian and Hungarian students. He contributed to increasing
the role and level of physics competitions, to searching youths who are talented inphysics and to the increase of the prestige of physics teachers.
He was always in close contact with his hometown. As a student of АłaНвsłaа żТļвМФТGrammar School he played at the Amateur Theatre of Mogielnica. He died in Warsaw
on 12-08-1971. He was buried in the Bródnowski Cemetery.

Ve věНОМФц práci, která je zachycena ve 21 půvoНnъМС pracích, se prof. Ko‫ﻣ‬ĴпХ zabýval
pĮОНОv‫ﻣ‬ъЦ netlumenými i tlumenými kmity spĮažОnýМС soustav a stabilizací ФЦТtůmechanických osМТХпtorů (11 prací), skládáním a analýzou ФЦТtů (6 prací). TentověНОМФý zájem jej pĮТvОНХ také k hudební akustice (3 práce). Zabýval se rovněž
základními vОХТčТnaЦТ dynamiky: hmotností tíhovou, sОtrvačnou a silou (1 práce).
Významná je i jeho čТnnost biografická a historická (6 prací). Rozsáhlá je zejména jeho
tvorba vвsoФo‫ﻣ‬ФoХsФýМС učОbnъМС tОбtů (37 svaгФů skript) a studijních tОбtů pro
Fyzikální olympiádu (11 prací). Jako ‫ﻣ‬ФoХТtОХ věНОМФýМС aspТrantů v oboru aplikovaná
fyzika (matematicko-fyzikální věНв) na ‫ﻣ‬ФoХТМъЦ praМovТ‫ﻣ‬tТ Fakulty elektrotechnické
VUT se zabýval i věНОМФou výchovou (celkem vedl 6 aspТrantů).
K nejvýznamněj‫ﻣ‬ъЦ zásluhám prof. Ko‫ﻣ‬Ĵála, které mají světový rozměr, patĮí, žО v roce1959 rozhodujícím způsobem pĮispěl k гaХožОnъ soutěžО Fyzikální olympiáda (FO) v
Československu a v roce 1966 ke vzniku Mezinárodní fyzikální olympiády (MFO).
Rozvoji FO a MFO se poté intenzivně věnoval až do konce žТvota. Fyzikální olympiádu
zakládal nejen jako vrcholovou soutěž stĮОНo‫ﻣ‬ФoХпФů, ale jako proЦв‫ﻣ‬ХОný systém, který
si klade za cíl vyhledávat a pěstovat talenty na fyziku jТž od 13. – 14. roku věku dítěte.
εв‫ﻣ‬ХОnФou FO se začal zabývat jТž od roku 1954 (jistým vzorem mu byla jТž tehdy
probíhající Matematická olympiáda), zpočátku v‫ﻣ‬aФ nОna‫ﻣ‬ОХ dost potĮebných
spolupracovníků a tak první pokusné soutěžО FO probíhaly až roce 1958 pro tОСНОj‫ﻣ‬ъkraje Olomoucký a Brněnský. V celostátním měĮítku začala FO probíhat od ‫ﻣ‬ФoХnъСoroku 1959/60 jТž ve v‫ﻣ‬ОМС tОСНОj‫ﻣ‬ъМС stĮОНo‫ﻣ‬ФoХsФýМС kategoriích A, B, C. Později se
pod jeho vedením roг‫ﻣ‬ъĮila i na dvě kategorie pro základní ‫ﻣ‬ФoХв. Z politických důvodů
nemohl vykonávat funkci pĮedsedy ústĮedního výboru FO. Stal se jím až od roku 1966,
55

kdy se projevilo jisté politické uvolnění (tuto funkci pak nepĮОtržТtě vykonával až doroku 1977 a poté až do smrti pracoval jako pĮedseda KV FO Jihomoravského kraje).
Hned jak mu byla svěĮena nОjvв‫ﻣﻣ‬ъ funkce v FO rozhodl se гaХožТt Mezinárodnífyzikální olympiádu. Oslovil prof. dr. Czeslawa įcislowského ve Var‫ﻣ‬avě a prof. dr.
Rezsö Kunfálviho v BuНapО‫ﻣ‬tТ a společně pĮipravili konání první MFO ve Var‫ﻣ‬avě v
roce 1967 za účasti pěti východoevropských států, druhá MFO se konala v r. 1968 v
BuНapО‫ﻣ‬tТ. TĮetí MFO v politicky sХožТtцЦ roce 1969 organizoval prof. Ko‫ﻣ‬Ĵál v Brně.
Desátá MFO v roce 1977 se konala opět v Československu - v Hradci Králové. Brzo sek východoevropským zemím pĮipojily i státy západní – Francie (1972), Spolková
republika Německo (1974), ŠvцНsФo (1976), Finsko atd. Dnes se této prОstТžnъmezinárodní soutěžО zúčastňují ĮО‫ﻣ‬ТtОХц ze v‫ﻣ‬ОМС pěti kontinentů světa (napĮ. 33. MFO v
Indonésii v roce 2002 se zúčastnilo 298 studentů ze 67 zemí, na 35. MFO v Korejské
republice v roce 2004 soutěžТХo jТž 332 ĮО‫ﻣ‬ТtОХů z 71 zemí). Na‫ﻣ‬Т studenti se ve světové
konkurenci vžНв umísĴují v první čtvrtině poĮadí zúčastněných zemí. Za prvních
dvanáct let existence České republiky, tj. od roku 1993, se Mezinárodních fyzikálních

Úspě‫ﻣ‬nost členů českého Нružstva na MFO se tak dá vyčíslit jako 90% a je tedy
vynikající. Je to díky tradici systematické pĮípravy talentů гaХožОnц jТž prof. Ko‫ﻣ‬Ĵálem.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSRezső Kunfalvi from Hungary
http://www.kfki.hu/fszemle/archivum/fsz9807/marx.html
RОгsĪ Kunfalvi (Cegléd, 1905. augusztus 20. – Budapest, 1998. július 1.)
Tisztelgés Kunfalvi Rezső tanár úr emléke előtt
Kunfalvi RОгsĪ szerencsés és boldog ember volt. Akkor
született, amikor a relativitáselmélet. Átélte ezt a fizikusszemmel csodálatos 20. századot, nem mint passzívsгОЦХцХĪ, hanem mint aktív sгОrОpХĪ, aki maga isirányítja az eseményeket.
A modern fizika 70 évvel ОгОХĪtt érkezett meg hazánkba
a frissen kinevezett Ortvay Rudolf tanszékére, és itt
Kunfalvi RОгsĪ is jelen volt. Az ОХsĪ években Īszervezte-adminisztrálta az Ortvay Kollokviumokat,
amelyeken egy ország tanulta meg a modern fizikát. Ígyszemélyesen ismerte Bródy Imrét, Lánczos Kornélt,
Neumann Jánost, Teller Edét, Tisza Lászlót, Wigner
JОnĪt. TĪХüФ, mint legautentikusabbaktól hallotta akvantumelmélet kibontakozását.
Amikor a harmincas években a Villányi-útra, aCisztercita Gimnáziumba került, nem szakadt meg kapcsolata az цХĪ-ПОjХĪНĪ fizikával.
Jelen volt Eddington, Heisenberg, Sommerfeld pesti társulati ОХĪaНпsaТn. A gimnáziumi
tanárokat rendszeresen elvitte a Csillagvizsgálóba. Azok a József Attilás diákok,aФТФbĪХ munkatársaim lettek, mint például Györgyi Géza, csillogó szemekkel meséltek
Kunfalvi tanár úr óráiról. Azok közé a legendás magyar tanár-egyéniségek közé
tartozott, mint Mikola Sándor, Novobátzky Károly és Vermes Miklós, akiket úgy irigyeltĪХünФ a külföld.
Közben járta a természetet, Eötvös nyomában megmászta az Alpokat és megismerte afizika csúcsait is. Fényképeire és agyába rögzítette élményeit. A modern fizika
evolúcióját hitelesen bemutató írásai a Fizikai Szemle gyöngyszemei. HevesyżвѓrРвrĪХ festett portréját mindmáig senki nem szárnyalta túl.
A 2. világháború viharai után panaszkodni lehetett, de tenni kellett. ĩ vívta ki, hogy a
Középiskolai Matematikai Lapokban megint induljon fizikarovat, amit Ī szerkesztett.
Amikor Állam Apuka visszavonult, vele beszéltem meg, hogy az Eötvös Társulat
elvállalja a lap kiadásának munkáját és anyagi ПОХОХĪssцРцt. Így lett és van ma is
Középiskolai Matematikai és Fizikai Lapok.
RОгsĪ bácsi legnagyobb kisugárzású tette az volt, hogy a hatvanas években lengyel éscseh kollégákkal együtt létrehívta a Nemzetközi Fizikai Diákolimpiát. Varsó után amásodik olimpiát Ī szervezte meg Budapesten. Nem mi, hanem külföldi (kínai) vОгОtĪФ
ismerték el, hogy a Nemzetközi Fizikai Diákolimpia az évszázados Eötvös VОrsОnвbĪХThe author could find information about RОгsĪ KunПaХvТ onХв in Hungarian. First the original text is printed anf

bontakozott ki. Ma már négy kontinens félszáznál több országának diákjai mérik össze nem izomerejüket, hanem problémavállaló és problémamegoldó képességüket. A világ
fizikusainak legmagasabb testülete, a Nemzetközi Fizikai Unió a kilencvenes évekbenérmével ismerte el e kezdeményezés világraszóló értékét. Amikor ezt az érmet a 90 évesRОгsĪ bácsinak átadtam, Ī emlékeit idézte fel és várakozásait mondta el.
Ezidén Izlandon volt diákolimpia, ahol 60 ország ЦОгĪnвцbОn a magyar diákok Kína,
Oroszország, Irán után a negyedik helyen végeztek, messze ОХĪгvО minden NATOországot. RОгsĪ bácsi most, a századvégen eltávozott, hosszú útra indult. De odafent
biztosan boldog mosollyal fogadja a magyar iskola újabb diadalát. Ezt köszönjük
Neked, Kunfalvi tanár úr!
Aki a jѓvĪ héten kíván gazdag lenni, az a tĪгsНцrО megy vagy kft.-t alapít. Aki a jѓvĪszázadra kívánja nemzetét gazdaggá tenni, az tanítja a fiatalokat. Kunfalvi RОгsĪ az
Eötvös Loránd Fizikai Társulat tiszteletbeli elnöke volt és az is marad.
Homage Rezső Kunfalvi memory of tutorRОгsĪ Kunfalvi was a lucky and happy man. He was born together with the theory of
relativity. He lived in this wonderful century of physicists, and not as a passive
observer, but playing an active role in ruling the events.
The modern physics arrived in Hungary in the thirties to the department of Rudolf
Ortvay, where RОrгsĪ Kunfalvi was working. In the first years he organized andrecorded the Ortvay Colloquies to teach modern physics to a country. He knew Imre
Bródy, Kornél Láncos, John von Neumann, Edmund (Ede) Teller, László Tisza, Eugene(JОnĪ) Wigner personally. They, the most authentic people, spoke him about thedevelopment of quantum mechanics directly.
When he went to teach to the Villányi Street, into the grammar school of the Order ofCistercians, he stayed in contact with the living developing physics. He visited thelectures of Eddington, Heisenberg and Sommerfeld at the Physical Society in Budapest.
He organized visits of teachers to the astronomical observatory. His students
remembered teacher KunПaХvТ’s lectures withenthusiasm. He belonged to the legendary
teachers of Hungarian physics like Sándor
Mikola, Károly Novobátzky and Nicolaus
Vermes.
Meantime he was a hiker. Following the
tradition of Roland Eötvös he climbed theAlps, as well as he conquered the peaks ofphysics. He recorded his impressions inphotos and in his brain. His papers on theevolution of physics are the brightest ones in
the Fizikai Szemle (Review of the
Hungarian Physics Society). His portrait ofGeorge Hevesy is beyond all praise.
After the Second World War one could

complain but should act. He reached reopening physics section in Középiskolai
Matematikai Lapok (the Mathematical Journal for Secondary Schools) and he became
the editor. With the withdrawal of Paternal State, he took the job of publishing while
Roland Eötvös Physical Society took the financial responsibility. This is the true storyof establishing the still existing Mathematical and Physical Journal for Secondary
Schools.
His greatest achievement was the establishing of the International Physics Olympiad
with Czech and Polish colleagues. He organized the second IPhO in Budapest, after the
first one in Warsaw. Even the Chinese team leaders acknowledged that the IPhO
movement was rooted in the century old Hungarian Eötvös Physics Competition. Today
the students of nearly one hundred countries compete in problem taking and problem
solving. The highest body of the physicists in the world, the International Union of Pureand Applied Physics acknowledged the value of the initiative with its golden award.
Taking the award he spoke about his memories and expectations.
He is the eternal honorary president of the Roland Eötvös Physical Society.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADSDziękuję za udzielenie wywiadu, z poważaniem Przemysław Stępiński

Interview with Dr. Waldemar Gorzkowski
Can you say something about yourself and about your present work?
I deal with theoretical physics, especially nonlinear electrodynamics. Beside that I
organize the International Physics Olympiads, and for my greatest pleasure I have been
the president of it already for five years. Furthermore, I am the leader of anotherinternational competition known as the „ŻТrst Step to Nobel Prize in PСвsТМs”
Where did you start your adventures in physics? When did this science touch you?
Since I remember I was interested in mathematics, physics and chemistry. For long time
chemistry seemed the most interesting. I won Polish Chemistry Olympiad three times(1955. 1956. 1957). By the end of lyceum, physics as the most fundamental science
attracted me first of all.
Were there any physicists in your family? Could you speak with them about physics?
Yes there was one in a lot of years ago, in the 19th century, so there were no
opportunities to speak them.
Did you always have the best marks in physics?
Yes, I did.
What about other subjects?
I did never have problems with them either, but it is more interesting that I always had
plenty of leisure time. In the maturation examination I got very good marks, although I
did not like all subjects. I did not like history, PW (it was taught by the same teacher),civics (it was cancelled before our maturation examination), some Polish writers (Icould never read through Eliza OrгОsгФoаa’s „NaН NТОЦnОЦ” (At the river), although I
honestly tried it several times). But I liked Polish language, especially grammar lessons.
Where did you studylater and in what special field?
I studied at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of the Warsaw University. (Later on
it was split to two separate faculties.) My specialization is theoretical physics (solidstate physics). For two years I also attended lessons for mathematicians, but I decided
for physics when the two lessons were in the same time.
What was the subject of your doctoral theses?
It was about coloured crystal groups. I succeeded completing classification of coloured
crystallographic point groups in the three dimensional space. (Before that just 50% of
these groups were known.)
What were your new results?
Discovery of six additional crystallographic groups if dual (spin) space in three
dimensions. For simpler understanding, in that space we need 4*pi rotations to return

62

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

into the initial state, for the 2* pi in the classical Eukledian space. Moreover, elevenadditional crystallographic spatial groups in spin-like space. Discovery of wave-likefunctions of excitons bonded to ionized donors in some semiconductors. To explain it,
an exciton is a bonded state of a negative electron and a positive hole. My new result
was the representation of irreducible groups of some spatial ones (for example thespatial groups of pyrite, white iron and beta-tungsten)
But I think, the most important achievement in my work is that with talented youths(student olympiads, competitions, lectures, books for people who simply like physics)
Which discoveries do you think as breakthroughs in physics?
I cannot give a definite answer, because there were several discoveries of breakthroughimportance.
What are you interested in beside physics?
It is mathematics. But if you mean my hobbies, they are aquaristics, photography,
picking and collecting mushrooms.
What do you like best in your profession?
Freedom. Although freedom is not offered to everyone. For example in experimental
physics there are costly instruments, constraint of financial conditions. In basic
research, in theoretical physics there is great freedom. I wish if there were enough good
research ideas.
What inspiring can one find in physics?
The methods of physics are easy to adopt in other fields, like genetics, high levelchemistry, economics, banking, insurance and even in language studies. The methods ofphysics can help in better understanding of phenomena of those fields. Physicists whogive up science and go to other fields will manage well.
What is the subject of contemporary physics?
I cannot interpret this term, because there is no such branch of physics. If you mean,
what physicists are doing, I cannot sum it simply. I am sure that there are less basic
researches and they are more technical than applied scientific research that is they are
not too attractive to me.
How do physics influence your everyday life?
In the everyday practice it has no influence.
What would you be if you weren’t a physicist?
Mathematician.
Which are your favourite books in physics, and why?
It changes from time to time depending on demand and on approach. Thinking of
textbooks I like Experimental physics of Szczepan Szczeniowsk (an excellent textbook
in six volumes) and Phenomenological thermodynamics of Józef Werle (I have nevermet better book in this topic). I like ŻОвnЦan’s essays, but not from scientific point of63

view. I prefer them before going to sleep. I also like δanНau’s quite hard works, andBОrФОХОв’s lessons. They are interesting but oversimplified. There are good books on
specific fields, but I will not scroll them.
Whom do you regard prestigious among contemporary physicists?
There are a lot of them. In different fields there are different personalities. It would be
hard to tell whom I esteem highest in different fields.
Thank you for the interview.

Webography
Scholar communications about IPhOs and related topics
On the web there are several papers about IPhOs, about problems at IPhOs, about IPhO
related topics, like gifted/talented children programmes and educational issues, and CVs
mentioning IPhOs. Searching only for books containing the expression „IntОrnatТonaХ Physics
OХвЦpТaН” is also useful.

LITERATURE OF THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICS OLYMPIADS

Bibliography
Comments to the Bibliography
It is impossible to provide the complete bibliography of the International Physics Olympiads.
The list below consists of different items from IPhO proceedings and collections of IPhO
problems to news items about IPhOs. There are academic papers dealing in depth withselected IPhO problems, papers on education policies of different countries and sometimes
there are papers dealing with some political issues that arose in relation with IPhOs. Somepapers are written about the comparison of science competitions, others about dealing withgifted or talented youths. CVs of former IPhO participants are excluded from thisbibliography, either in direct form, a selection of them can be found in the chapter individual
homepages or in their indirect form when the CV of a former IPhO participant is attached to
his/her academic publication. There are also some physics books that give interesting
problems in physics.
The bibliography cannot be closed. It refers to the present status of the collection. Additional
papers and topics can be added any time.

Comments to the revision
Receiving copy of pages from Professor Waldemar żorгФoаsФТ’s first compilation “δТst ofWinners in the 1st-20th International Physics OХвЦpТaНs“ and later on downloading its next
version “δТst of Winners in the 1st-30th International Physics OХвЦpТaНs” the author was a bit
confused, because he was not marked as absolute winner of the 5th IPhO. In the revision
process he added this information, because he actually was one of the two absolute winners.
Nevertheless, he feels that he has to present evidences that explain this action. For that reason,copies of independent compilations, contemporary reports and original documents are shownin this Appendix.
 The first item is a copy of the original compilation of Professor Gorzkowski (List ofWinners in the 1st-20th International Physics Olympiads). Several errors and mistypesof that list are marked red there.
 The next item is a report in the Soviet „Kvant” from 1971. Its fourth paragraphmentions two absolute winners with equal points.
 Screen copies from the homepage of the Czech IPhO participation are given to
demonstrate that Karel Safarík got 48 points in Sofia.
 Finally a copy of the autСor’s Diploma with 48 points is provided.
The author is aware of the fact that Professor Gorzkowski did not participate in the 5th IPhO,
so he should work with handwritten notes when compiling the list, and he had no otherresources to recall results.
The author hopes very much that there is no more major error and there are not too muchminor errors in the present version of the compilation. Nevertheless, the manuscript will be
modified later, if needed.
