The E-print Network is . . . . . . a vast, integrated network of electronic scientific and technical information created by scientists and research engineers active in their respective fields, all full-text searchable. E-print Network is intended for use by other scientists, engineers, and students at advanced levels. . . . a gateway to over 35,300 websites and databases worldwide, containing over 5.5 million e-prints in basic and applied sciences, primarily in physics but also including subject areas such as chemistry, biology and life sciences, materials science, nuclear sciences and engineering, energy research, computer and information technologies, and other disciplines of interest to DOE. We hope the E-print Network proves valuable to you in supporting your research initiatives.

Beautiful Mathematical GIFs Will Mesmerize You Digital artist and physics PhD student Dave Whyte is dazzling our computer screens with his mesmerizing GIFs that are the perfect marriage of mathematics and art. And we can’t stop watching them. Whyte shares his brilliant, procrastination-fueling creations on an almost daily basis on his Tumblr account, Bees & Bombs.

DOE Research and Development Accomplishments The Genes Have It! March 2016 is the 30th anniversary of the Santa Fe Workshop, which brought together participants from government, academia, and the private sector to explore the possibility of sequencing the human genome. This Workshop was sponsored by DOE and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). It met the goal of Charles DeLisi, then Associate Director of the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Health and Environmental Research (OHER), by laying out an approach to sequence the human genome. arXive For a specific paper, enter the identifier into the top right search box. astro-ph.GA - Astrophysics of Galaxies (new, recent, current month) Phenomena pertaining to galaxies or the Milky Way.

Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy You may find the following tips helpful when searching the SEP. Fuzzy search: If you are not sure how to spell a search term, you can try a fuzzy search, which will find inexact matches. Simply add a tilde (‘~’) after the term. Example: results for the search Liebnitz~ include documents matching the term “Leibniz”. Required terms: By default, search results will contain entries that match any of the search terms. 21 GIFs That Explain Mathematical Concepts “Let's face it; by and large math is not easy, but that's what makes it so rewarding when you conquer a problem, and reach new heights of understanding.” Danica McKellar As we usher in the start of a new school year, it’s time to hit the ground running in your classes! Math can be pretty tough, but since it is the language in which scientists interpret the Universe, there’s really no getting around learning it. Check out these gifs that will help you visualize some tricky aspects of math, so you can dominate your exams this year. Ellipse:

Calculators This is your one-stop page for the various "solver" tools we have available. Consider bookmarking the page for quick access! Note that most of these tools are provided by MathWay, but there's no need to leave our site to get your answer. This is a GREAT tool if you're looking to check your work, or perhaps solve a tricky problem in an engineering class. But remember, if you're doing homework for your math class, your teacher will want to see your work completed thoroughly, not just an answer. Equation Solver Awards July 1999 – STIP Community Wins Award The STIP Community was awarded a National Partnership for Reinventing Government (NPR) "Hammer Award" for the successful transition to electronic scientific and technical information (STI) management. This award recognizes the team of employees who made a significant contribution in support of reinventing government principles. Some 96 individual participants were involved in the electronic transition effort.

USDOE, Office of Scientific and Technical Information The following sites offer bibliographic information for journal literature in disciplines relevant to the DOE R&D mission: Energy Citations Database – provides free access to bibliographic records for energy and energy-related scientific and technical information from the Department of Energy (DOE) and its predecessor agencies, the Energy Research & Development Administration (ERDA) and the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). The database provides access to DOE publicly available citations from 1948 through the present, with continued growth through regular updates. Infotrieve's Article Finder – accesses scientific, technical, medical, and other scholarly content.

Spanning decades, this exploration eventually led to Department of Energy (DOE) research into solar energy. The trailblazer who led this exploration was Melvin Calvin, a chemist at the University of California Berkeley Radiation Laboratory, now Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (read more at the DOE R&D Accomplishments Blog).
