All scientific papers cited in this page are listed below. You can open PDF files clicking on their title. Purple labels are original papers cited for historical purpose. If you know some maths (student, scientist, engineer…) and you are discovering the Janus cosmological model, we suggest to begin with red labels which are most recent core papers. As for Green labels, they are popularization courses (science comics) from the author, perfect to begin with. Other books and publications of interest are listed at the Bibliography page.
