I would like to thank Junk and Lyons (arXiv:2009.06864) for beginning a discussion about replication in high-energy physics (HEP). Junk and Lyons ultimately argue that HEP learned its lessons the hard way through past failures and that…
This article--summarizing the authors' then novel formulation of General Relativity--appeared as Chapter 7 of an often cited compendium edited by L. Witten in 1962, which is now long out of print. Intentionally unretouched, this posting is…
Starting with Einstein's famous papers of 1905, we review some of the ensuing developments and their impact on present-day physics. We attempt to cover topics that are of interest to historians and philosophers of science as well as to…
A biographical profile of the theoretical physicist, Julian Schwinger, and a discussion of "The Memories of Julian" Centennial Celebration (held at Harvard University on February 12, 2018) is presented herein.
An overview of the evolution of computing-oriented publications in high energy physics following the start of operation of LHC. Quantitative analyses are illustrated, which document the production of scholarly papers on computing-related…
It has been shown (S. Lawrence, 2001, Nature, 411, 521) that journal articles which have been posted without charge on the internet are more heavily cited than those which have not been. Using data from the NASA Astrophysics Data System…
I discuss and connect a number of topics in small-x physics at HERA and at LHC, pointing out recent progress and open questions in theory and phenomenology.
Paper provides a brief introduction to SLAC, discusses the origins of the SLAC Archives and History Office, its present-day operations, and the present and future challenges it faces in attempting to preserve an accurate historical record…
I present a summary of the last in the series of HERA-LHC workshops, CERN, 26-30th May 2008.

We apply techniques in natural language processing, computational linguistics, and machine-learning to investigate papers in hep-th and four related sections of the arXiv: hep-ph, hep-lat, gr-qc, and math-ph. All of the titles of papers in…
arXiv.org mediates contact with the literature for entire scholarly communities, both through provision of archival access and through daily email and web announcements of new materials, potentially many screenlengths long. We confirm and…
The paper is based on a talk given to celebrate {\O}rsted's discovery of electromagnetism in 1820. It gives a brief account of {\O}rsted's life and work, before using the evidence of articles on electricity and magnetism in the…
The ep HERA collider started operation in summer of 1992. This talk summarizes some of the highlights of physics results obtained since then and discusses their impact on our understanding of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD).
In high energy physics, scholarly papers circulate primarily through online preprint archives based on a centralized repository, arXiv, that physicists simply refer to as "the archive". This is not just a tool for preservation and memory,…
New thinking needs to emerge about how to reform publishing along lines that best meet two perennial needs of scientific communication. This paper discusses a model that addresses these two needs with respect to physics. Given the…
This article has been withdrawn by arXiv administrators because it plagiarises arXiv:1006.4556 (published in Phys. Lett. B 693, 129 (2010)).
As a 30th anniversary tribute, I discuss the present and possible future impact of the physics and the physicists of BFKL.
The IPPOG and U.S. Particle Physics Masterclasses took place worldwide in March 2011. For the first time, all masterclasses used real LHC data. Students in the U.S. Masterclasses (that included participants in several countries outside the…
