FYSICA 2022 FYSICA 2022 was a roaring success, we were happy that we could organise FYSICA on site again at University of Twente. Ronald Hanson (QuTech, TU Delft) and Peter Bauer (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Reading, UK) gave excellent lectures. We loved the finals of the Young Speakers Contest. In the afternoon we offered a wide range of interesting focus sessions, all of them were fully booked. The lunch tours to different labs were very popular too. |

FYSICA 2021 Due to the corona pandemic, FYSICA 2021 took place in Zoom on April 16th. We celebrated the centennial of the NNV with a great program: excellent speakers varying from young scientists to Physica Prize Laureate Daniel Bonn and two Nobel Prize Laureates Reinhard Genzel and Roger Penrose. The NNV received the title royal out of the hands of the commissioner of the King of Noord-Holland. FYSICA 2021 ended with a fantastic physics pubquiz. Recordings available. |

FYSICA 2020 FYSICA 2020 was planned at University of Twente on April 17th. Due to the corona pandemic we had the change FYSICA into an online event very fast. It turned out to be a great success. Over 600 people attended the meeting in Zoom. We had wonderful speakers: Nobel Prize Laureate Didier Queloz and Physica Prize Laureate Martin van Hecke. The Young Speakers Contest had excellent finalists, so the audience had a hard time to vote for one of them. The recordings are available. |

FYSICA 2019 The main stage of FYSICA 2019 was in a purpose-built pavilion on Amsterdam Science Park. This year's edition attracted well over 500 physicists, who enjoyed two rounds of tours to 9 institutes at the park at lunchtime. Most stayed for the luscious specially-discounted Suriname-style buffet and evening show. Many excellent speakers presented their work in between the opening lecture by Physica Prize winner Kobus Kuibers and Nobel Prize laureate Gérard Mourou in the early evening. The full program can be downloaded here. |

FYSICA 2016 We felt very honoured that one of the winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2015, Takaaki Kajita, attended FYSICA 2016 and gave a lecture. The program of FYSICA 2016 can be found here. As you can see in the program, spectacular recent breakthroughs in (astro)physics, like quantum entanglement and gravitational waves, were brought to the public.

FYSICA 2015 On Friday April 10th, FYSICA 2015 took place at Eindhoven University of Technology. All kinds of physicist attended the meeting: teachers, industrial physicists, students and academics. It was a day full of exiting physics. The United Nations (UN) General Assembly 68th Session proclaimed 2015 as the International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies (IYL 2015). FYSICA 2015 paid attention to the International Year of Light, with parts of the programme focussing on light and light-based technologies. Click here to look at the program of FYSICA 2015. |
