ICO and Optica Acta: The Birth of a European Optics Journal

John N. Howard

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

As early as 1948, optical physicists were looking at the Journal of the Optical Society of America (JOSA) as a model publication. Drawing on OSA's experience, the International Commission for Optics hoped to start its own journal-which would do for European optics what JOSA had done in the United States.
