Factsheets

When completed, this section will bring together the coherent and reliable fact lists for all IYPTs. In the case of the earliest IYPTs, such details have been remaining up to now obscure and often disputed, requiring the most of our efforts in historical research. Please signal to us immediately if you see a detail to be corrected. As a remark, the names of the teams never followed a standard guideline and were slowly shifting from detailed names (“combined team of Odessa” or “Moscow School 542”) to just nations and codes (“Austria-II”); whenever possible we attempt to catalogue the names as they were reading on official diplomas.

The IYPT regulations were gradually evolving over time, and are generally amended stepwise every year. This section attempts to bring together the original, authentic texts of the regulations as they were available to the participants of each IYPT, as well as details of the implementation. The regulations used at the earliest IYPTs had already most of the features that we commonly know today. Nevertheless, many differences existed against the today’s regulations. The examples include the procedure of grading (2...5+, or an extended Soviet school grading scale, used last time in 2000); the time allocated for each performance in a Physics Fight; the status of Semi-Finals and how the problems for the Semi-Finals were selected from the entire set of 17 tasks (until 2001); the challenge procedure in the Finals (omitted in 1994 or 1995), or the procedure to calculate and round up the TSPs.

Conversion of Grades

1st IYPT (1988)

Source: Detailed history of early IYPTs in 1988—1993 (preprint)

Schedule: March 28—April 2, 1988
Venue: Olympiets Youth Center, outside Moscow, Soviet Union; opening ceremony, final stages likely to have been hosted at Department of Physics, Moscow State University
Status and structure: combined with the ultimate Finals of the 10th Moscow YPT and merged with the 1st all-Soviet YPT, thus being the first ever YPT to invite, accommodate geographically scattered teams; 3 PFs (8 groups with 4 teams each), 12 problems (incl. sunset, spring in city, ninth wave, copper coin)
Regulations: detailed regulations have existed prior to the 1st IYPT; most actual iterations were specified in separate booklets, a most recent paper in Kvant, highlighting regulations of a Physics Fight
Teams: People’s Republic of Bulgaria, Czechoslovak Socialist Republic as non-Soviet teams; all Soviet teams (reportedly 29) were recognized by LOC as participants of the 1st IYPT on a rival basis; still disputed if a few teams had special status based on pre-selection at early stages of the event
Number of teams: reportedly 31
Number of countries: 3, counting all Soviet teams from 14 National republics (all except Belarus) as from one country
Ranking: not yet found, unclear if existent even unofficially, many credible sources point to “winners not assigned”; 10 diplomas of category Т, 10 diplomas of category Ю, 7 diplomas of category Ф, 4 concilatory prizes
Winners: “The organizing committee set no goal to determine winners of the Tournament as the starting conditions were far too unequal for the teams that gathered at Olympiets. However, there were no weak teams at the Tournament and no marked leader—all teams turned out to be strong. One would need to list more than a half of participants to name the best teams”; still disputed if formal international ranking and winners existent whatsoever; accounts are conflicting, further research is undergone
International observers: an unidentified representative of German Democratic Republic
Working language: de facto only Russian; diplomas, booklets, problems in Russian only; de jure the invitation letter reads “the knowledge of Russian language is preferred, but not compulsory”
Typical visual aids: handwritten paper posters commonly considered a “good manner”, using posters confirmed by Bulgarian, several Moscow teams; official guidelines for reporters read, “[it is] preferable to use drawings, posters, [framed] slides [for a slide projector], photographs, and also demonstrate experiments if the problem is experimental”
LOC: no detailed information; Evgeny Yunosov and Georgiy Zatsepin both signed diplomas as Head of OC; Evgeny Velikhov might have had a formally leading position within LOC
IOC: not formally existent
Miscellaneous: the first IYPT to encounter a computer simulation in a report (Yury Yufryakov); complete, detailed Russian-language regulations fixed in a brochure sent to invited teams in early 1988: 5 students expected for a team, 5 min for report, 3 min for opposition, 1 min for individual commentaries in discussions, 2 min for review, maximum 2 rejections in one PF, individual performances throughout the YPT limited to 2, and only 1 as reporter, jurors’ grades in the range from 5+ to 2, but these extreme grades must be publicly explained; sets of problems restricted for certain stages (Nos. 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 17 for Qualification PFs aimed at selecting winners of Moscow YPT and introducing the YPT concept to newcomers, Nos. 3, 6, 7, 10, 13, 15, 16 and others at Selective PFs with both Soviet and non-Soviet teams); Jry per group: 2-5 university undergrads, 2-3 researchers from Moscow State University, 3-4 team leader jurors
Political context: the Soviet Union remains a centralized, stable unity with reform-oriented glasnost and perestroika running; Bulgaria remains a socialist republic; Czechoslovakia remains a socialist federation of the two republics

Source: Detailed history of early IYPTs in 1988—1993 (preprint)

Schedule: March 24—April 2, 1989
Venue: Olympiets Youth Center, outside Moscow, Soviet Union; opening ceremony, possibly Finals hosted at Department of Physics, Moscow State University
Status and structure: combined with the the ultimate Finals of the 11th Moscow YPT and 2nd all-Soviet YPT, held as separate International Rounds after Soviet domestic pre-selection and exhibition rounds: Finals of the 11th Moscow YPT at 10h00 on March 25, Opening Ceremony of the 2nd all-Soviet YPT at 15h30 on March 25, further stages believed to be merged
Regulations: most actual iterations were specified in a most recent paper in Kvant, final report, and a paper in Gift. Tal. Intl.
Teams: People’s Republic of Bulgaria, Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, Federal Republic of Germany, People’s Republic of Hungary, Netherlands, People’s Republic of Poland as non-Soviet teams; two Soviet teams selected during the 2nd all-Soviet YPT: Moscow School 710, Odessa Station of Young Technology Amateurs
Number of teams: 8
Number of countries: 7
Gold winners: Bulgaria, West Germany
Silver winners: disputed; several accounts point at Moscow School 710
Bronze winners: disputed; an account points at Czechoslovakia, Netherlands, Poland, but not consistent with the handwritten ranking; probably all teams on places 4 to 8
International observers: none known
Working languages: de facto mostly Russian, LOC provided interpreters from/into English and (possibly informally) German, at least on one occasion the Polish team said to make a presentation in Polish, booklets, diplomas in Russian, non-Cyrillic names in Summary Document in both original spelling and in Cyrillization, an English translation of (non-ultimate) problem set by LOC is known, no accounts on official language regulations known
LOC: no detailed information; Georgiy Zatsepin signed diplomas of the 2nd IYPT proper as Head of OC, Evgeny Yunosov signed virtually identical diplomas of the 2nd all-Soviet YPT as Head of OC
IOC: formally established immediately after the 2nd IYPT, during the International Consultative Meeting on April 3—5, to prepare the 3rd IYPT then expected for Czechoslovakia; Georgiy Zatsepin elected IOC President, Evgeny Yunosov Vice-President, M. Nikolaev, Vladimir Alminderov, Lyudmila Ermolaeva, N. Koroteev, Tatyana Korneeva, A. Kusenko, “all members of Czechoslovak National Committee of YPT”, “1 or 2 members from countries-participants” as members
Miscellaneous: participants volunteered to collaboratively make handwritten newspapers; regulations updated and made more articulate around the 2nd IYPT: 7 min for report, 3 min for opposition, 2 min for review, but if translated, duration increases by a factor of 2, Finals pre-announced with “home-work problems for the Finals that are analogous to the problems of the Correspondence Round”
Political context: despite growing tensions, the Soviet Union remains a centralized unity, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland remain socialist states, Germany remains divided between the West and the East
Maximum Sum of Points in a PF: most likely, 33=3×5.5+2×5.5+1×5.5
