About Eureka

Eureka is the journal of The Archimedeans (Cambridge University Mathematical Society).

Eureka was first published in 1939 and the most recent issue to be published was the 57th. It is a mix of articles and problems, with some mathematical humour for good measure. Although most of the articles are written by students, there are Eureka articles written by such luminaries as Paul Dirac, Paul Erdös, John Conway, Béla Bollobás, Ian Stewart and Douglas Hofstadter, to name but a few. The problems include the annual Archimedeans' Problems Drive, as well as other recreational problems. Two recent articles, Train Sets and Gess the Game from Eureka 53, have inspired articles by Ian Stewart in Scientific American.
