History

The Belgian Physical Society was founded on 16 February 1929 at the University Foundation, following an initiative of the national committee of physics. Its first president was the spectroscopist A. de Hemptinne, and the first vice-president was Th. De Donder, who contributed i.e., to the field of general relativity. The early archives of the society were lost during the Second World War, when its activities were suspended. The rebirth of the BPS took place in 1949 under the presidency of Charles Manneback, and on 26 December 1962,[1] the BPS became an association without lucrative purpose. In 1950, the society created its first journal, the Bulletin of the Belgian Physical Society. This publication was succeeded by Physicalia in 1964, and by BPhy-Magazine (an electronic journal) in 2009. In 1970, under the presidency of Lieven Van Gerven, the society started its series of "general scientific meetings" which bring together physicists from all Belgian universities and research institutes, and of all physics disciplines.

Conferences

One of the main activities of the BPS is organizing international conferences such as the annual BPS general meeting. The conference location cycles between the ten different universities that offer physics programmes in Belgium, and is still organised yearly.

Prizes

Every year BPS awards several prizes to promising young physicists such as the BPS Young Speaker Contest, the BPS Poster Contest and the BPS Best Master Thesis Prize.

Publications

Its electronic magazine is BPhy-Magazine (since 2009), the successor of its former letters journal, Physicalia Magazine.
