Key Databases for Physics
- SciTech Premium Collection This link opens in a new windowThe SciTech Premium Collection includes the Natural Science Collection and Technology Collection databases and provides full-text titles from around the world, including scholarly journals, trade and industry journals, magazines, technical reports, conference proceedings, government publications and more.
- Web of Science This link opens in a new window
A very powerful and varied database. Use the "citation" feature to check for new citing authors. Coverage from 1900 to present.
Additional Databases
- ArXiv.org This link opens in a new windowThis is a pre-print and e-print archive of research papers in physics, engineering, mathematics, and computing. While many of the papers on the server are high quality, be aware that they are not peer-reviewed. ArXiv does moderate the submissions for relevance and appropriateness, and has recently implemented and endorsement system for some submissions. However, this is not the same as peer-review.
- Data Citation Index This link opens in a new windowData Citation Index fully indexes a significant number of the world's leading data repositories of critical interest to the scientific community, including over two million data studies and datasets.
- IOPscience This link opens in a new windowFull-text articles in diverse scientific, medical, and technical fields, from journals published by IOP (Institute of Physics) Publishing. Covers materials published 1874-present.
- Google Scholar This link opens in a new windowGoogle Scholar searches scholarly literature and provides a simple interface for accessing full-text content, tracking citations, and citing sources.
