Acknowledgments—Contributors to PACS 2010
The American Institute of Physics (AIP)—the publisher of PACS—gratefully acknowledges the assistance and cooperation of the AIP Subcommittee on Classification and Information Retrieval (SCIR), consisting of appointed members representing a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines, which has oversight responsibility for PACS development. In addition, invaluable advice was provided by the members of the PACS Working Groups, and editors of AIP, Member, and Affiliated Society journals, as well as by the many advisors from the American Physical Society, and by members of the physics community at large. Particular thanks are due to Safia Hameed—currently a scientific classification consultant—for providing more than three decades of expert guidance in PACS development.
Members of AIP's SCIR and the Working Groups formed under its charge serve on a voluntary basis. We express sincere appreciation to these dedicated individuals for their efforts on behalf of the larger scientific community. The membership is listed, along with the names of individual advisors, whose efforts were invaluable in producing the 2010 edition of the Physics and Astronomy Classification Scheme:
