SUMMARY

The discussion centers on locating E.P. Wigner's seminal paper titled "On Unitary Representations of the Inhomogeneous Lorentz Group," published in the Annals of Mathematics in 1939. Users suggest utilizing the PROLA database for access, contingent on institutional subscriptions. Additionally, they recommend checking local libraries in Beijing for physical copies. The discussion also references JSTOR as a potential resource for accessing the article.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with academic journal databases such as PROLA and JSTOR
  • Understanding of the Annals of Mathematics publication
  • Knowledge of E.P. Wigner's contributions to physics
  • Basic research skills for locating historical academic papers
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore access options for PROLA and JSTOR for academic articles
  • Research the history and significance of Wigner's work in theoretical physics
  • Investigate library services in Beijing for interlibrary loans
  • Learn about the citation practices for historical academic papers
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, physicists, and students interested in theoretical physics, particularly those studying the Lorentz group and its applications in modern physics.

EP Wigner'paper:
On Unitary Representations of the Inhomogeneous Lorentz Group


thanks!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
1.Did u fully browse the internet ...?This is a really old article and there are slim chances u find it online.What journal contains it?If it's APS (Phys.Rev.Rev.Mod.Phys.Phys.Rev.Lett),u can use PROLA,but only if u have "account" (either u or your univ.pays money to them).

2.I'm sure in Beijing there must be a library which would have the article.You can ask for a xerox copy.

Daniel.
 
I'm sure it's this article:

Wigner,E.P.,"On the unitary representations of the inhomogenous Lorentz group",Ann.Math.,40,149-204,1939.

P.S.Just like PROLA,u have to pay :rolleyes:

EDIT:http://www.jstor.org/journals/0003486x.html
