Asian Physics Olympiad 1st 8th

This book compiles all of the test problems and solutions from the 1st through the 8th Asian Physics Olympiad. Test questions of every paper consist of two parts, a theory section and an experiment section, before which minutes of teams and results of each competition are introduced. It is a rather desirable reference book for both students and teachers of international competition training as well as middle school student contestants.

This work compiles the test problems and solutions from the 1st through the 8th Asian Physics Olympiad. The book is suitable for both students and teachers of international competition training as well as middle school student contestants.

The Asian Physics Olympiad (APhO) is a unique, single-subject, practical and theory-based individual competition in the field of physics. It was developed to provide young Asian students with a platform to display their physics knowledge. It is the celebration of the best in pre-university physics. Each year, for about one week, pre-university students from across Asia gather and test their theory and practical skills in physics. This book contains question papers in both theory and experiment and their solutions together with description of various activities of the 15th Asian Physics Olympiad held in Singapore from 11th to 18th May 2014. The book will serve as a valuable source of interesting and challenging experimental and theoretical topics for young physicists worldwide.

This book contains some of the problems and solutions in the past domestic theoretical and experimental competitions in Japan for the International Physics Olympiad. Through the exercises, we aim at introducing the appeal and interest of modern physics to high-school students. In particular, the problems for the second-round of competition are like long journey of physics, beginning with fundamental physics of junior-high-school level, and ending with the forefronts of updated physics and technology.

This volume contains original and refereed contributions from the tenth AMCTM Conference (http: //www.nviim.ru/AMCTM2014) held in St. Petersburg (Russia) in September 2014 on the theme of advanced mathematical and computational tools in metrology and testing. The themes in this volume reflect the importance of the mathematical, statistical and numerical tools and techniques in metrology and testing and, also keeping the challenge promoted by the Metre Convention, to access a mutual recognition for the measurement standards.
