Welcome to the ACIPA Homepage!

ACIPA is an organization of physicists, founded in the USA in 1981, with two objectives:

  • To develop a spirit of unity among physicists of Indian origin, and indeed the entire Indian subcontinent, living in North America;
  • To serve as a channel of communication between these physicists and their colleagues in the Indian subcontinent, for mutual benefit.
