AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding alternatives to arXiv.org for accessing free physics articles. Participants express difficulty in locating other free publication sites, with arXiv being the primary resource mentioned. Several websites are suggested, including hep.net, SLAC's SPIRES, and various OSTI links, which offer preprints and eprints in physics. It is noted that all new papers in IoP journals are free for the first 30 days, and the New Journal of Physics is always available at no cost. Additionally, the Physical Review journals have introduced a program allowing authors to pay for unlimited open access, although uptake is still low. The conversation highlights the challenge of finding comprehensive free resources in the physics field.

Hello,

I was curious if there are any other sites similar to arXiv.org that store and allow free access for articles in physics.

Thanks.

Physics news on Phys.org
Even I tried to search for free publications but no luck except for arxiv. I would love to know other free publication websites but I rather doubt there other free publication websites of physics besides arxiv
 
Please note that ALL new papers appearing in ALL IoP journals are available for FREE during the first 30 days that they appear online. Also note that New Journal of Physics, which is one of IoP's publication, is always available for free.

One should also start looking at the Physical Review journals, especially PRL. They have recently started a program in which the authors can pay an extra fee to make their papers have unlimited open access. Not many so far have taken up on it (I certainly didn't with my last paper), but I'm starting to hear that they are becoming more frequent.

Thank you All!

Just went and found straight article on subject for which I had to gather info by pieces from wiki and arXiv.org. Whoa.
 
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
