SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the rebranding of a resource hub originally named "Physics Napster," which compiles numerous links and information pertinent to physics research and education. Key resources highlighted include the Los Alamos arXiv for preprints, John Baez's website for quantum geometry, and a comprehensive Gravitational Waves course from Caltech featuring lectures by Kip Thorne. The discussion emphasizes the importance of these resources for students and professionals in the field of physics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with online academic resources such as arXiv and institutional websites.
  • Basic understanding of physics concepts, particularly in high-energy physics and relativity.
  • Knowledge of how to navigate online educational platforms and access lecture materials.
  • Awareness of key figures in physics, such as Kip Thorne and John Baez.
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the Los Alamos arXiv for the latest preprints in high-energy physics.
  • Review John Baez's resources on quantum geometry and related topics.
  • Investigate the Gravitational Waves course materials from Caltech for advanced learning.
  • Research additional online textbooks and lecture notes available through university websites.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for physics students, educators, researchers, and anyone interested in accessing high-quality educational materials and resources in the field of physics.

If this is somewhere in this thread, I am sorry :O But what/where is the database that collects all publications from physics-related peer-reviewed journals?

In biological sciences we've got the national center for biotechnology information at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed/ where every single published articles gets archived.

What would be the physics equivalent? Not speaking about Xarchiv, since that is not peer-reviewed, is it?

I'm not sure if there is a archive, but a couple databases are:
web of science -- http://isiknowledge.com
inspec -- can't get a url, the university sends us through a proxy so I can't see the url.

Both these might be a paid service.

APS has everything indexed for everyone to see, you just need a subscription to view the articles.

Does anyone have any Intro to Biology online texts?

http://occawlonline.pearsoned.com/sms_files/campbell6e_awl/login.html

This is the 6th edition of Biology by Campbell and Reece, the text we used in my General Bio course. The user name and password are chocolatejesus12 and jenny21. They still work. It has the complete text (under e-book) as well as pictures, diagrams, and activities you can do.

Here are the Feynman lectures, but only volume one is available.
