The Society of Mathematicians, Physicists and Astronomers of Slovenia

It was the fundamental Slovene society in the field of arithmetic, material science and astronomy. The Society is involved with pedagogical action and with the promotion of math, recreational math, material science, and stargazing and with sorting out rivalries at all levels of training. It was established in 1949. It expected to enhance the instructing of arithmetic and material science in Slovenia and to give the Slovenes a brought together logical and numerical wording.

At the point when the Society was established in 1949 Slovenia was a piece of Yugoslavia, as it had been since 1919. Taking after the German intrusion in 1941, Slovenia was parceled between German, Italy, and Hungary in any case, taking after World War II, Slovenia turned out to be a piece of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia. It was made to serve the requirements of schoolteachers. At the time it was established educators did not have a tendency to have a solitary capability to instruct either science or material science yet rather instructed both themes in schools. It was in this way normal to give a Society which had the same spread of interests as its expected audience. Plemelj was the most well-known Slovenian mathematician at the time the Society was established. At the point when Plemelj passed on in 1967 he cleared out his estate in the lake resort of Bled to the Society. Regularly today summer schools for numerically gifted school youngsters happen in this estate. Two critical assignments which the Society attempts to safeguard the scientific legacy of Slovenia is to help with keeping up a display to Vega in his origination of Zagorica, and one for Plemelj in the estate at Bled. It has likewise been in charge of raising plaques and landmarks all through Slovenia to remember other critical Slovenian mathematicians.
