Description
With about 70‘000 registered participants and over 1 million clicks on the web page every year, Physics in Advent (PiA for short) is one of the major physics outreach projects in Europe. PiA is an playful physcis Advent calendar of the Georg-August University in Göttingen. From 1 to 24 December, an experiment riddle will be posted on the PiA homepage every day. The goal of PiA is to foster pupils' curiosity and interest in physics and science and to help understand natural physical phenomena without complex formulas, to make science alive in the living room. We will give a short overview on the Physics in Advent project and how the Swiss Physical Society is fostering its impact in Switzerland.
