Recent theses are available online via ProQuest. It doesn't seem possible to link directly to a list of Berkeley Astronomy ones in particular, but as of June 2012 you can browse them this way: | Recent theses are available online via ProQuest, and a smattering of older ones are stored on this website. It doesn't seem possible to link directly to ProQuest's list of Berkeley Astronomy ones in particular, but there are a few ways to quickly find what you want. As of June 2012, you can search for a thesis by author like this: |
| |
| * Go to [[http://search.proquest.com/|search.proquest.com]] |
| * Click on "Advanced Search" |
| * In the main search box, enter something like "au(chornock, ryan)" for an author search |
| * In the "Source type" box, check only "Dissertations & Theses" |
| * Your desired thesis will almost always be in the first page of results. |
| |
| And you can browse Berkeley astronomy theses like this: |
| |
* Go to [[http://search.proquest.com/|search.proquest.com]] | * Go to [[http://search.proquest.com/|search.proquest.com]] |
* Select "Browse by Location" | * Select "Browse by Location" |
* Expand "United States -- California", then "University of California, Berkeley" | * Expand "United States -- California", then "University of California, Berkeley" |
* View the documents with the "astronomy" keyword. (This has more results than "astrophysics" so hopefully it's more inclusive, but maybe you need to check both?) | * View the documents with the "astronomy" or "astrophysics" keywords. (Sadly, the different keywords probe disjoint subsets of the theses, and both of them pull in a lot of physics theses.) |
* You probably then want to sort by "Publication Date (most recent first)" | * You probably then want to sort by "Publication Date (most recent first)" |

=====Local Copies===== | Below is a **very** incomplete listing of Berkeley theses. The format is indicated in brackets, with "[PQ]" indicating a link to ProQuest. "(P)" after a name denotes a degree received in Physics. "(AST)" after a name denotes a degree received in Applied Science & Technology. Some of the direct file links are quite large, unsurprisingly, though others link only to abstracts. |
| |
There is also a selection of theses, in various formats, stored locally. Check out the list below. Unsurprisingly, some of the files are quite large. "(P)" after a name denotes a degree received in Physics. As should be obvious, this selection is very incomplete. | === Fall 2013 === |
