Physics arXiv Blog
The Physics arXiv Blog aims to offer an alternative view of new ideas in science. It is based on, although independent of, the arXiv pre-print repository run by the Cornell University. Started in 2007, in 2009 it was hosted by the MIT Technology Review. In 2013, it was moved to the platform Medium. In 2015 it moved back to the MIT Technology Review.

The Physics arXiv Blog has been said to offer "the best physics coverage around" by the Wired journal.[1] It was included among the "Five great physics blogs" by The Guardian.[2]
Publication model
Content appears to be crowd sourced from within the physics community. Similar to The Economist, articles seem to lack specific author bylines.

gollark: Can you post Lyric's Law? It appears to not be on the starboard.
gollark: Looping construct: jump backward one instruction (`L`)Branching construct: pick next instruction or previous instruction (`B`) - next if accumulator > 0, previous if accumulator <= 0.New branching construct: pick next instruction if user types `0` or previous if user types anything else (`N`)Making loop non-infinite: `E`, exits program if accumulator < 0.+1/-1 act on an accumulator initialized at zero (`+`/`-`)A program consists of a sequence of these instructions (first line) and arbitrary data encoded in base64 (second line) which is loaded into linear memory as bytes. These are executed left-to-right until the end is reached; when this occurs the direction of execution will be reversed.Infinite arbitrary data: command (`D`) to set accumulator to value of linear memory at position in accumulator.This language is called "HahaYourLawIsBad".
gollark: Hmm...
gollark: 124 wwwwwwwwwww123
gollark: Lyric's Second Law - "if one can name stuff after oneself, one will do so".
