A guide to resources related to Physics, including recommended databases and journals, websites, and physical library materials in the Galvin Library collection.
These databases are great places to look to find information about Physics. Check out the Databases page on the Galvin Library website to see a full list of databases.
Journals published by the American Physical Society, including Physical Review Letters, Physical Review X, Physical Review, and Reviews of Modern Physics.
This huge database is "the ultimate science and technology research solution, combining full text journals with detailed indexing of global literature on natural sciences, engineering and technology. Areas covered include materials science, aerospace engineering, civil engineering, biology, aquatic sciences, environmental science, computer science and earth sciences in addition to many more."
The SciTech Premium Collection includes the Natural Science Collection and the Technology Collection 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.
For those researchers who need to conduct comprehensive literature reviews, this database includes specialized, editorial-controlled A&I resources for discovery of relevant scholarly research and technical literature critical to the discipline.
IOP is one of the leading publishers in physics and provides a search for over 50 journals. Contains many subjects within and outside of physics including astrophysics, mathematics, atomic physics, nuclear physics, and earth science.
NOTE: The Galvin Library does not have access to IOP material published during or after 2015. In order to access current IOP material please use MyILL.
Academic Search CompleteContains more than 8,500 full-text periodicals, the majority being peer-reviewed journals. It also provides an index to additional journals, books, reports, and conference proceedings. It covers a wide range of topics and is a good place to start researching a topic.
ArXiv is an e-print service with an extensive, searchable collection of mathematics, physics, quantitative biology, statistics, and computer science papers beginning in 1991.
