Sažetak
The first Few-Body (FB) conference was held in London in 1959, second in Brela (1967) and — after conferences in Birmingham (1969) and Budapest (1971) — Los Angeles conference in 1972 started a series of conferences held every 2 - 3 years. European FB conferences are held regularly since 1971. In 1975 European FB community was organized, followed by the FB research group of the American Physical Society and recently by Asian-Pacific FB conferences. Few-Body Systems - a journal devoted to FB problems - was initiated by W. Plessas in 1986. FB conferences are attended by about 250 - 350 participants from over 40 countries. FB research is more international involving over 20 institutions from 10 countries (and more, e.g. PANDA involves 370 physicists from 47 institutions in 16 countries [1]). Through its variety FB field constantly attracts young researchers. While initial conferences were devoted to nuclear and particle physics, today they include particle, nuclear, atomic, molecular, solid state physics, chemistry and astrophysics.
