History of Physics on the World Wide Web
The AIP Center for History of Physics is proceeding to mount
a home page on the World Wide Web as an entry point for
information on the field (including astronomy, geophysics,
etc.). Features include:
- Exhibits of photos, with quotes and other points of
interest, plus links to many other exhibits on the Web. A
special feature is a set of pages based on the AIP Center's
highly-regarded traveling exhibit Einstein: Image and
Impact.
- News about history of physics and allied sciences,
including recent issues of this AIP History of Physics
Newsletter, including in particular our bibliographies.
Links point to other newsletters and upcoming meetings
sponsored by history committees in scientific societies,
etc.
- Information Sources, beginning with the Center and the
holdings of its Niels Bohr Library -- such as selected oral
history interviews (also available on AIP's gopher) and
photographs in the Emilio Segrè Visual Archives. A rapidly
growing set of links will point to many other archives and
general history of science information sources.
... And more. This service will grow rapidly; we recommend
checking every few months for new materials. Point your Web
browser to:
