The Physics Newsgroups

The USENET hierarchy contains a number of newsgroups dedicated to the discussion of physics and physics-related topics. These include sci.physics, sci.physics.research, sci.physics.cond-matter, sci.physics.particle and alt.sci.physics.new-theories, to all of which this general physics FAQ is relevant. Some of the more narrowly focused physics newsgroups have their own FAQs, which can, of course, be found in the appropriate newsgroups.

sci.physics
sci.physics is an unmoderated newsgroup dedicated to the discussion of physics, news from the physics community, and physics-related social issues.

alt.sci.physics.new-theories is an open forum for discussion of any topics related to conventional or unconventional physics. In this context, "unconventional physics" includes any ideas on physical science, whether or not they are widely accepted by the mainstream physics community.
