Where to find this wigner's classical paper

In summary, EP Wigner's paper "On Unitary Representations of the Inhomogeneous Lorentz Group" was published in the journal Annals of Mathematics in 1939. It may be difficult to find online, but it is available through PROLA and JSTOR with a paid account. It may also be available in a library, such as one in Beijing.

1.Did u fully browse the internet ...?This is a really old article and there are slim chances u find it online.What journal contains it?If it's APS (Phys.Rev.Rev.Mod.Phys.Phys.Rev.Lett),u can use PROLA,but only if u have "account" (either u or your univ.pays money to them).

2.I'm sure in Beijing there must be a library which would have the article.You can ask for a xerox copy.

I'm sure it's this article:

Wigner,E.P.,"On the unitary representations of the inhomogenous Lorentz group",Ann.Math.,40,149-204,1939.

P.S.Just like PROLA,u have to pay :rolleyes:
