ArXiv contains over one million fulltext pre-prints (open access) in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Quantitative Biology, Quantitative Finance and Statistics. Although arXiv is not peer reviewed, a collection of moderators for each area review the submissions; they may re-categorise any that are deemed off-topic, or reject submissions that are not scientific papers. Coverage: 1992 - present Related database: Astrophysics Data System
The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) / NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is a Digital Library portal for researchers in astronomy and physics, operated by SAO under a NASA grant. The ADS maintains three databases containing references to publications in astronomy and astrophysics, physics, and the arXiv e-prints. Abstracts and fulltext of major astronomy and physics publications are indexed and searchable, with key terms or by browsing. Coverage: 1975 - present
The Web of Science by Clarivate Analytics contains the Web of Science Core Collection (from 1945-...) with references of international journal articles, conference proceedings, books and book chapters from all scientific disciplines.
It includes data from eight citation indexes:
- Science Citation Index Expanded
- Social Sciences Citation Index
- Arts and Humanities Citation Index
- Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S)
- Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH)
- Book Citation Index - Science (BKCI-S)
- Book Citation Index - Social Science & Humanities (BKCI-SSH)
- Emerging Sources Citation Index
Chemical indexes:
- Current Chemical Reactions (CCR-EXPANDED)
- Index Chemicus (IC)
Citation indexes offer a unique search method to find later-published journal articles, in which a publication is cited. Coverage: daily updates

In this handbook, you can find general information on several specific areas of chemistry and physics. It also contains tables with chemical and physical properties of a variety of compounds. Structure searches and searches on properties such as CAS-number, molecular weight or formula, are also possible as.
Subjects covered are: light and optics, lasers, optical fibres, and optical fibre systems, optical materials, LED's and applications in control and manufacturing, data processing and storage, applications in environment, engineering, defence, ocean study, medicine and biology.
An extensive reference work on technology in natural sciences, mathematics and computer science. Subjects covered range from engineering to aeronautica and quantum physics to polymer chemistry.
All mandatory literature for physics and astronomy is available for inspection in the Library of Science. A number of books is also available as an e-book! You can download them from the e-books for physics and astronomy page.
