Proud organizers of the 5th edition of "Physics & We" summer camp!

Guess what the 4 working groups of Physics & We decided to represent 😃 A little help is here 😂

From 5-9 August the 5th jubilee edition of Physics & We summer camp took place. The participants designed, assembled, and digitized a spectrometer that can distinguish various liquids; measure and visualize the concentration of different compounds in the mixed solution.

#MAOP2024's 1st week covered lectures and lab tasks on 3 main topics of the college: Optical computing & imaging; Quantum optics & nanophotonics; Optical materials & nonlinear spectroscopy.

#MAOP2024 gave students the possibility to present their work and network with experts in the field in a friendly atmosphere. YSO Student Chapter's members with pride took over the organizational duties of such a great event for 2 weeks by learning and teaching, sharing and receiving!

YSO Student Chapter's members chaired sessions, presented talks, posters, outreach, organized social activities for #MAOP2024 with the support of Optica, SPIE, and Yerevan State University- YSU. Together, we also celebrated the 20th anniversary of the 1st #OSA student chapter in Armenia

The cakes of this summer😎😎 #physics&we #MAOP2024

On the 13th of September, our chapter participated in an expo dedicated to freshman students at Yerevan State University- YSU. During the event, we introduced students the opportunities they could explore with us to make physics more interesting for a public audience.

🌟From the 23rd to 27th of September, the president of YSO Student Chapter , Shant Sargsyan attended Optica ‘s #StudentLeadership program at #FiOLS2024! Shant had a great time networking and connecting with the #opticaambassadors, fellow students and senior members of Optica.

On 03.10.24,YSO Student Chapter participated in the “Science Week” expo in Yerevan. We presented optics experiments,hosted a quiz related to the demonstrated phenomenon. The event drew interest from people of all ages,who wanted to learn how physics worked and influenced our daily lives.

💡On 09.10.2024, we welcomed freshman and sophomore students at YSU. Our president, Shant, gave a presentation, highlighting our ongoing projects and initiatives to make science more accessible for everyone. Following the presentation, we did a quick outreach session.

And here is again our beloved International Symposium on Optics and its Applications for the 12th edition (#OPTICS12). On 15th of October 2024, YSO Student Chapter ‘s officers participated in a poster session and presented our chapter's activities to the attendees 🌎

On October 21st, 2024, we celebrated the Day of Photonics at the Yerevan State University. Using our Quantum Distribution Demonstration Kit from Thorlabs , which we purchased thanks to the SPIE Outreach Grant, we demonstrated the principles of quantum distribution🔐

💥 Today, on the November 12th we had our regular chapter meeting and held an outreach training session for our new members. We enjoyed networking and guiding our new friends through our outreach process. We’re looking forward to our future events together!

💡 Today, on November 15th, our student chapter members held 2️⃣ parallel outreach sessions in schools of Yerevan. Our optics experiments helped students to understand how physics works and how beautiful it is. Optica SPIE Yerevan State University- YSU
