Smithsonian Physical Tables
Originally published by Smithsonian Institution Press in 1954, this classic reference source comprises 901 tables of general interest to scientists and engineers, and of particular interest to those involved with physics in its larger sense.
Both of the following sources attempt to measure the value or impact of scientific scholarship by journal of publication. The measures are largely based on the frequency of citations to published articles correlated with the journal ranking. SCImago also applies similar methodologies to scientific scholarship by country of origin.
Eigenfactor.org
Eigenfactor ranks scholarly journals in the natural and social sciences (and also newsprint, PhD theses, and popular magazines) using citation data and journal price.
SCImago Journal & Country Rank
The SCImago Journal & Country Rank is a portal that includes the journals and country scientific indicators developed from the information contained in the Scopus database. These indicators can be used to assess and analyze scientific domains.
