Most interesting WEB pages on physics

In summary, for a list of the most interesting pages on physics, some suggestions include the Bilbao Crystallographic Server for information on space groups and crystal symmetry, Hyperphysics for a wide scope of topics, the Usenet Physics FAQ for in-depth explanations, and Wolfram MathWorld for a focus on mathematics and some physics topics such as Lorentz Transformation.

I'm looking for a list of the most interesting pages on physics, on the internet.

By "most interesting", I mean pages which are rigorous, well done graphically, and no discussions boards/forums and NO crackpots ! It could be simulations applets, papers, Wikipedia articles, etc. I prefer things on relativity theory (special and general), or on electromagnetism, but it could also be on classical mechanics and quantum mechanics, as you prefer.

What are your suggestions ?

Everything you ever wanted to know about space groups, crystal symmetry and so on. And then some...

Hi! I really don't know which level you are after, but here are some I remember...

Hyperphysics has a great scope IMO. Could be made more beautiful, though.

I like the Usenet Physics FAQ too, but graphically it's very basic :smile:.

Have to mention Wolfram MathWorld too, even though it focuses on mathematics.
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ There are physics in there as well, e.g. Lorentz Transformation.
