This is not a H/W problem, but i don't have write permissions in math/science learning materials.
i was looking for a collection of the most important quantum physics papers collected from the 20's kind of like the following that i found interesting, but is for chemists:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/981022771X/?tag=pfamazon01-20

has anyone seen something like this for physics papers?
