For electronic article access, try the university license to APS Journals (Physical Review) or the electronic preprint archive at Los Alamos); for searching published work in astronomy, the ADS abstract service is excellent. For particle physics, the web sites of large experiments can be helpful in finding publications.
If you have a physical, psychological,
medical, or learning disability that may impact your course work, please
contact Disability Support Services (631) 632-6748 or http://studentaffairs.stonybroo
Students who require assistance
during emergency evacuation are encouraged to discuss their needs with
their professors and Disability Support Services. For procedures
and information go to the following website: http://www.sunysb.edu/facilities/ehs/fire/disabilities.shtml.
Each student must pursue his
or her academic goals honestly and be personally accountable for all
submitted work. Representing another person's work as your own is always
wrong. Faculty are required to report any suspected instance of academic
dishonesty to the Academic Judiciary. For more comprehensive information
on academic integrity, including categories of academic dishonesty,
please refer to the academic judiciary website at http://www.stonybrook.edu/uaa
Stony Brook University expects
students to respect the rights, privileges, and property of other people.
Faculty are required to report to the Office of Judicial Affairs any
disruptive behavior that interrupts their ability to teach, compromises
the safety of the learning environment, and/or inhibits students' ability
to learn.
