Example Papers
The following papers were selected as representative of the Research Science Institute from 1995 to 1999.
You should use these examples to get a feel for how to structure your paper, as well as how to efficiently and effectively use tables and graphics. Note: from 1995 to 1998, students used LaTeX and not LaTeX 2e. Thus, a few items, especially at the beginning of the paper, are different. The specific method for inserting a figure changed in 1999; you should use the method taught during the first week.
From this web site, you can view postscript files of each paper. The LaTeX source is located in the /rsi locker on Athena; a directory is provided with each paper.
