| Physics on the Internet | List of links to other sites; maintained by PlasmaGate; includes links to data bases and free physics software |
| Physics Encyclopedia | Extensive set of links to Internet resources in various fields of physics |
| Atomic Physics around the World | Links to sites related (sometimes vaguely) to atomic physics, organized by country; maintained by Plasma gate. |
| Atomic Physics Links | Wide-ranging, comprehensive links maintained by Livermore Lab. |
| Yahoo Physics Links | Less carefully screened but exhaustive list of links concerning physics and related topics; use with caution. |
| About.com physics links | Even less carefully screened but even more exhaustive. Some useful stuff, but use with extreme caution. |
| PhysLink | Very extensive reference site of links to on-line resources and information about physics, astronomy, and engineering. |
| Databases | |
| Units & Conversion factors | Interactive conversion factory & definitions of units. |
| Encyclopedia Brittanica | A great place to find introductory info about nearly any topic in physics. Well organized, with excellent use of hypertext and graphics (and equations). Also rates academic web sites. |
| Data bases for atomic & plasma physics | Extensive list of links to mostly specialized data bases maintained by Plasma gate. |
| NIST physical reference data | Terrific source of information about physical constants, conversion factors, and more specialized stuff maintained by the National Institute of Standards & Technology |
