Nuclear and Particle Physics Data Online
- Particle Data Group, the
keepers of the Review of Particle Physics.
An invaluable resource. Includes
tabulations of physical and astrophyiscal constants, and brief reviews of
key topics in cosmology and particle astrophysics, as well as key
issues in particle physics.
-
Reference on
Constants, Units, and Uncertainty
(NIST)
-
Solar abundances from
Anders & Grevesse (1989).
A handy tabulation, though without the chemical symbols
for the elements, so you have to either know them
or have a table of them.
-
The Standard Model of particle physics explained in one page (!) at
ParticleAdventure.org
