Quantum mechanics has led to a multitude of research fields that make up modern physics from the smallest (particle physics) to the largest scales (cosmology) and from basic science to highly applied research (quantum informatics). Research in these sub-disciplines has been progressing rapidly for decades and a wide variety of specialisations have emerged. It is therefore no wonder that it was researchers in high-energy physics who were looking for a “shortcut“ to new research results and were the first to come up with the idea of circulating preprints, i.e. articles that had not been (fully) peer-reviewed, between institutions. Over time, an official open access information service for the community developed: the INSPIRE-HEP specialised database
