Such as we advanced in the last update of the report Launch of new canonical science journal, open access to figures is now guarantied. This reinforces Center's leadership on open access!
The first Research report that provides to the readers an improved open access is Theories reducing to Newtonian gravity: general relativity doesn't. [...]

Theories reducing to Coulombian electrodynamics, relativistic electrodynamics doesn't
This 40+ pages Research draft analyzes the internal consistency of different theories of electrodynamics, their compatibility with Coulombian electrodynamics, and their confrontation with experiments and observations.
The current theories of electrodynamics considered in this Research draft are: relativistic field electrodynamics; electrodynamics theory; the electrodynamics worked by ; electrodynamics; dual electrodynamics; and action-at-a-distance theory worked by .
This Research draft also introduces readers to the new post-relativity theory. [...]
Theories reducing to Newtonian gravity: general relativity doesn't
Scientific knowledge is accumulative. Theoretical and fundamental scientists require a single comprehensive theory applying to all physical phenomena
. Newtonian gravity is used for a broad range of gravitational phenomena. This implies that any theory of gravity, to be taken seriously, would reduce to Newtonian gravity in some limit.
This Research report studies the Newtonian limit of six theories, presenting the difficulties and inconsistencies found when rigorously revised. The theories considered are: general relativity; nonlinear field theory; theory; the relational theory by ; 's relational theory; and action-at-a-distance theory worked by .
This Research report shows that (i) the assertion that general relativity reduces to the theory of as well as (ii) the assertion that the quadratic-'field'-low-velocity geodesic equation of motion is identical to the Newtonian equation of motion do not hold upon close inspection. It is also demonstrated that some observational difficulties of relativistic theories of gravity —such as the unphysical boundaries imposed in general relativity— are related to their lack of compatibility with Newtonian gravity.

A basic set of guidelines for acceptable scientific discussion on the canonical science today blog has been prepared. These guidelines are based over several years of experience following discussions on USENET, forums, and blogs.
The canonical guidelines for online scientific discussion provide several basic do's and don'ts, together recommendations to avoid flames and other kind of traps diverting attention away from the subject. [...]
Three main search engines were indexing and archiving the canonical science site. On June 1, Microsoft released a preview version of a new search engine: Bing. It went fully operative on June 3 and is indexing and archiving the canonical science site.
Bing is a decision engine with some interesting new features:

CSReport package: new journal format over an Unicode extension of TeX engine
The canonical meta language (CanonML) continues under active development at laboratory. However, its formal structure, syntax, and basic semantics are already sufficiently developed to be tested in a real production environment such as the canonical science reports journal.
After testing alternative models for rendering CanonML contents, an improved TeX engine has been selected for the publishing model of this journal. As explained in this Announcement report, the new package CSReport has been developed; this is built over an Unicode extension of TeX, and emphasizes the use of semantic markup and the reusing of code.

To serve better to research and educative community, to science journalists and general people, and to fill own needs, the Center launches the new draft section for Canonical Science Reports.
Referees, collaborators, and Center's Premium members can access —using their usernames and passwords— to last knowledge for pre-publication review and assimilation before its access was universal as final publication. [...]
