Caroline Thompson's Physics
Material discussing what is wrong with fundamental physics, and challenging the currently-accepted evidence for both quantum theory and Einstein's relativity theories.
      Author: Thompson, Caroline
      DeweyClass: 530.12
European Optical Society
The purpose of the EOS is to contribute to the scientific progress in optics and related sciences and to promote their applications on the European and international levels, by bringing together individual persons and legal bodies involved in their disciplines and their applications. The EOS aims to establish an open coordination of international conferences in Europe in the field of optics and is supported in this by all the national societies of the European countries.

Light
A guide to the physics of light covering topics such as wavelengths, the speed of light, colour, lenses, lasers, mirrors, diffraction, reflection and refraction, and solar power. Available in English and Polish.
      Author: ThinkQuest
      DeweyClass: 535
Society for Applied Spectroscopy
The objective of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy is to advance and disseminate knowledge and information concerning the art and science of spectroscopy and other allied sciences. The term spectroscopy as used here means the science and art of absorption, emission, Raman, mass, and related forms of spectral study for determining the composition and structure of matter.

      DeweyClass: 535
Theater of Electricity
Explores the history of studies into electricity, looking in particular at lightning, tesla coils, Franklin's kite, and the Van de Graaff generator, with an animation of how it works. Features a safety quiz, resources for teachers, and a gallery of videos and pictures.
      Author: Museum of Science
      DeweyClass: 535
XCOM: Photon Cross Sections Database
Web database which can be used to calculate photon cross sections for scattering, photoelectric absorption and pair production, as well as total attenuation coefficients, in any element, compound or mixture, at energies from 1 keV to 100 GeV.
