In the period 1928 – 1999, the Swiss Physical Society published the Helvetica Physics Acta, which continued as the SPS communications (German: SPG Mitteilungen, French: Communications de la SSP). Since 2008, the SPS communications[3] has three volumes per year. Non peer-reviewed articles on "progress in physics", "historical anecdotes", and "physics and industry" are published. In 2021, a serie of white papers were initiated.[4] The first FOCUS issue discusses technological advances and the impact of nuclear energy.
