Find Physicists' Published Papers: Max Planck, Ludwig Boltzmann

AI Thread Summary
Finding comprehensive lists of published papers by individual physicists like Max Planck and Ludwig Boltzmann can be challenging. While Google often provides quick results, specific searches for these physicists have proven difficult. Notably, netlib.org/bibnet offers a narrow selection of resources, and Wikipedia biographies for these figures are lacking, with Planck listing only ten papers and Boltzmann none. However, the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy provides a useful "primary sources" section for Boltzmann, which could serve as a starting point for further research. Additionally, the Annalen der Physik archive is accessible on gallica.bnf.fr, although the download process is slow and not easily automated, prompting users to seek more efficient methods for gathering relevant papers. The discussion also touches on the potential of using alternative search engines like Cuil for broader searches.

Does anyone have any suggestions for finding lists of all papers published by individual physicists?

Usually the Google machine turns up hits pretty quickly, but I've hit a brick wall looking for lists for Max Planck and Ludwig Boltzmann.

netlib.org/bibnet/ is amazing, but it's pretty narrow.

The Wiki biographies didn't list them?

Planck's only lists ten papers; Boltzmann's had none -- though, the link to his article on plato.stanford *does* have a nice-sized "primary sources" section; it doesn't look comprehensive, but it's a good start; maybe I'll plug a few more names into Plato and see if the pattern continues.

The reason I'm asking is, I just discovered that much of the Annalen der Physik archive is available on gallica.bnf.fr...but the downloads are *slow* and non-automatable, so I'm trying to cherry-pick the most relevant.
 
Have you tried other , "memory-less" search engines like Cuil?
 
Thread 'In the early days of electricity, they didn't have wall plugs'
Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
