• PhysNet physics related journals
  This site lists physics and related journals, which are freely available on the net.
• PhysLink.com Physics and astronomy online education and reference
  This site has a wide range of links, despite its "popular" appearance. According to its creator: " I do not believe that I should make a division between popularizing physics and providing serious web tools for experts. There is a spectrum of levels and services that the site provides."
• Planets and solar system links
• PubSCIENCE
  Provides users the capability to search across a large compendium of peer reviewed journal literature with a focus on the physical sciences and other disciplines of concern to the Department of Energy (DOE).
• The SPIN Database
  The SPIN (Searchable Physics Information Notices) Database provides the most current indexing and abstracting of major American and Russian physics and astronomy journals. SPIN contains the abstracts of over 80 scientific journals published by the American Institute of Physics and its member societies since 1975, as well as selected articles from other scientific journals..... SPIN is updated daily. Approximately 45,000 new records are added annually. SPIN searches can be performed for a single journal or year, or across multiple journals or years.
• SPIRES Help Database
  Search more than 400,000 high-energy physics related articles, including journal papers, preprints, e-prints, technical reports, conference papers and theses, received by the SLAC and/or DESY libraries since 1974.
