The EPS Accelerator Group has published information on its activities and 23 year-long history.

The EPS is investigating the feasibility of launching a study into physics and the economy, on a European scale. Research will go ahead if it is deemed that such can be done in a timely and cost effective manner.
In 2007, the UK Institute of Physics (IoP) commissioned a similar study entitled ‘Physics and the UK Economy’ – which can be read on the IoP website. The report - which examined the role of physics-based sectors in generating employment - added value and support to other sectors of the economy.
