Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around finding online sources for classic scientific papers by notable figures such as Einstein, Lorentz, and Planck. Participants seek resources that are in the public domain and available for free access.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests online sources for classic papers that are public domain and free.
  • Another suggests that Web of Science may list relevant papers but is uncertain about their availability for free access, proposing that users might request papers from universities.
  • A participant provides specific links to Einstein's book "Relativity" and his paper "On the Influence of Gravitation on the Propagation of Light," indicating these are available online.
  • Another participant shares a link to a collection of Euler's papers, noting they are translated and formatted in LaTeX.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on a single source for classic papers, and multiple suggestions are offered without clear agreement on the best option.

Contextual Notes

Some suggestions depend on the availability of papers in specific databases, and there is uncertainty regarding the free access status of certain resources mentioned.

Who May Find This Useful

Looking for an online source for papers of Einstein, Lorentz, Planck etc. -old enough to be public domain and free
 
Physics news on Phys.org
web of science may have listed them, they link to loads of different journals etc.. wether they are free i don't know. You could always find the ones you want and then maybe request them from a university or something?
