Must-Read-Papers

Sometimes there are papers that everyone should read, or at least those interested in a particular topic. Help your research colleagues by pointing them to good texts, good reviews, classics in our research area, etc. Be helpful about why. If papers are in the general literature, point to weblinks via OSU library. River has done this on the Thermal conductivity page, so go there to see how, if you're the first to enter. When you enter new papers, please list author, date (yyyy-mo-day), and title and a brief note about content.
