National Committee for Physics
The National Committee for Physics (NCP) fosters physics in Australia, links the Academy to Australian physicists and relevant scientific societies, and links Australian and overseas physicists, primarily through the International Union for Pure and Applied Physics and the International Commission for Optics.
The NCP launched the Physics decadal plan 2012鈥�2021: building on excellence in physics on 6 December 2012, the Australian physics community鈥檚 strategic vision for the 10 years from 2012 to 2021. The decadal plan was jointly created by the Academy, the Australian Institute of Physics, the Australian Research Council and the physics community. From 2012, the focus of the NCP has been to drive the promotion and implementation of the decadal plan in consultation with the Academy.
