Navigate through the history of SIF
In 2022 the Italian Physical Society (SIF) turned 125 years old and in 2023 its International School of Physics Enrico Fermi turned 70 years old. SIF celebrates these events with an interactive web realisation in which it is possible to navigate through the history of the Society with a gallery of evocative images and explanatory writings.
The “Enrico Fermi” Prize of the Italian Physical Society for 2023 was awarded ex aequo to:
Massimo Ferrario (INFN, National Laboratory of Frascati)
Lucio Rossi (University of Milan)
Frank Zimmermann (CERN, Geneva)
for their outstanding developments on various advanced acceleration technologies.
The names of the winners of the SIF prizes for the year 2023 are online.
The awards will be presented during the opening ceremony of the 109th SIF Congress to be held on 11 September at the University of Salerno in Fisciano.
On the occasion of the 125th anniversary of the foundation of the Italian Physical Society (1897-2022) and of the 70th anniversary of the International School of Physics "Enrico Fermi", which is celebrated in 2023, the booklet on the SIF history and actitivities has been updated and is now available online in an Italian/English bilingual version.
