Which kind of journal gives submissions to outside scientists to read and comment upon?

Scientific journals are periodic publication to share new discoveries. The journals are often collaborations from many scientist in various fields. All published journals must be peer-reviewed, high quality original research. Peer-reviewed journals have been read, reviewed, and commented by other scientists in the field.


What is the process of sharing information with other scientists?

Usually a new idea or even a different angle on a commonly held theory will be submitted for peer review, that is a scientist will submit their findings to a major scientific journal such as Nature, etc. Various scientists will then read, discuss, dissect, question the proposal for accuracy or feasibility.

Which are the latest inventions by scientists?

Science discovers new things every day, so any answer to this question would be rendered obsolete within a few days. To keep up to date with scientific discoveries and inventions, it would be sensible to subscribe to a monthly or weekly journal, such as 'Nature' and 'Science', which will include all of that month's most interesting and important research. More focused journals also exist. For a more convenient approach, subscribe to magazines like 'New Scientist' or 'Scientific America', which take the most interesting and ground-breaking research and present it in a format that is relatively easy for anybody to understand and enjoy. Both of these have their own websites, which are free for anybody to access, where the vast majority of articles can be read without a subscription. If you want the detail of the journals, but the simplicity of the magazines, there are a variety of websites that will list all the recent (and historical) research articles at no charge. You will also be able to read the abstract for free, which provides a brief summary of the article. It would however cost money to read the full article. I do not recommend this method though, since you will not understand the abstracts nor be able to select interesting articles from the hundreds that are produced each month unless you are very scientifically minded, in which case you would benefit more from (and spend less money by) subscribing to the journals themselves.

How did scientists find out about each others work?

They find out through papers, technical journals, technical magazines, conferences or simply telling each other. There is a saying in the academic science and engineering community. "Publish or parish" Scientists and engineers who make new discoveries publish their work for others in the same field to read and learn from to gain notoriety and to show they were the first or that they did it better. For example Albert Einstein published his theory of relativity in a set of papers. Which were then reprinted in a physics journal and read by most physicists around the world.
