8.1 Going further
Though every practicing scientist already knows this, for the sake of any student reading this we
mention the following resources:
http://www.slac.stanford.edu/spires/ – the SPIRES bibliographic database for keeping
track of (almost all of) the general relativity and particle physics aspects of the relevant
literature.
http://inspirebeta.net/ – the new INSPIRE bibliographic database (currently beta version)
for keeping track of (almost all of) the general relativity and particle physics aspects of the
relevant literature.
http://ads.harvard.edu/ – the SAO/NASA ADS bibliographic database for keeping track
of (almost all of) the astrophysical aspects of the relevant literature.
http://www.arXiv.org – the electronic-preprint (e-print) database for accessing the text of
(almost all, post 1992) relevant articles.
- http://relativity.livingreviews.org/ – the Living Reviews in Relativity journal.
Those five access points should allow you to keep abreast of what is going on in the field.
