Abstract: We visualize 113 years of bibliographic data from the American 
Physical Society. The 389,899 documents are laid out in a two dimensional 
time-topic reference system. The citations from 2005 papers are overlaid 
as flow maps from each topic to the papers referenced by papers in the 
topic making intercitation patterns between topic areas visible. Paper 
locations of Nobel Prize predictions and winners are marked Finally, 
though not possible to reproduce here, the visualization was rendered to, 
and is best viewed on, a 24" x 30" canvas at 300 dots per inch (DPI).
