The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System Abstract Service provides a gateway to the online Astronomy and Physics literature. You can navigate this content using the following query interfaces:

The new ADS, featuring a clean new look, advanced search and filtering options as well as visualizations.
Astronomy and Astrophysics Classic Search, an legacy interface which searches the 2,524,989 records currently in the Astronomy database, including 219,869 abstracts from Planetary Sciences and Solar Physics journals
Physics and Geophysics Classic Search, an legacy interface which searches the 10,829,863 records currently in the Physics database, including 688,020 abstracts from APS journals and 500,779 abstracts from SPIE conference proceedings
arXiv Preprints Classic Search, an legacy interface which searches the 1,885,397 records consisting of all the papers published in the arXiv e-print archive
Science Education Classic Search, a legacy interface to the literature in Science Education Research and related publications (a selected subset of publications from the above databases)

Each database contains abstracts from articles and monographs published in the different disciplines. The databases cover all the major journals, many minor journals, conference proceedings, several Observatory reports and newsletters, many NASA reports, and PhD theses.

The arXiv e-print database contains preprints submitted to the arXiv e-print archive. ADS maintains this database to allow searches on the latest literature being published, with links to the fulltext available from the arXiv.

We also provide access to scanned images of articles from most of the major and most smaller astronomical journals, as well as several conference proceedings series. All scanned articles are linked to the corresponding references in the ADS. They can be accessed through the search system linked to on this page or through ADS browse interface.

As an additional service to the astronomical community, ADS has also been maintaining a database of people involved in astronomy research. If you need to locate somebody in the community, you can use the astroperson search form.
