The Finals of IYPT 2012

Just like back in 2010, here are some notes and pictures taken during the finals:

The teams of Korea, Singapore and Iran are getting ready!
First we’ll hear WuHyun Sohn from Korea with his report on Problem 1. Gaussian cannon!

President Alan Allinson is asking everybody in, the Stadtforum Bad Saulgau is completely filled, everything is prepared and the teams are getting ready!

Introduction of the teams:

Three former participants in the Jury: Ilya, Martin and Kathryn:

Korea’s report hast just started. Here’s Singapore’s mascot listening carefully:


The jury for IYPT 2012 finals:

Alan Allinson, Prapun Manyum, John Balcombe, Ivan Antsipau, Chuanyong Li, Valentin Lobyshev, Samuel Byland, Kreso Zadro, Kathryn Zealand, Martin Plesch, Othmar Marti and Ilya Martchenko

The opponent takes the floor:

Discussion, whiteboard:

From left to right:
Team Iran – Reviewer – Seyed Mohammadali Modarressi
Team Singapore – Opponent – Jie Yeo
Team Korea – Reporter – WuHyun Sohn

Last year Korea ended their concluding remarks with the words “This is physics” – today we get to see more fun videos :)

Juror grades are in:

REP: 8 8 9 8 7 8 7 7 7 8 8
OPP: 8 8 8 8 8 6 8 8 8 9 8
REV: 8 9 7 9 9 7 8 9 8 8 9

Stage 2 is about to start.
Daniel Keat Kay Mark will do his report on 5. Bright waves.

I asked the teams before if they needed a table for showing experiments. Sadly they don’t :)

It’s a fight of Captains:

Grades from stage 2:
REP: 9 9 8 8 8 7 7 6 6 7 10
OPP: 7 8 8 9 8 7 7 7 6 6 9
REV: 9 9 9 9 9 9 8 9 9 7 8

Waiting for Iran’s report. They might well win this IYPT if their report is good – Korea and Singapore got the exact same points for their reports. It’s your turn now, Rojin Anbarafshan!

REP: 7 9 10 9 9 8 8 6 6 7 8
OPP: 9 9 9 8 7 9 7 10 9 7 9
REV: 8 8 7 7 8 7 8 8 8 7 9

So the winners are:

1) Korea
2) Iran
3) Singapore

Congrats to everyone!
