			<p>The default search mode is <strong>simple search</strong> that
			basically provides you with one input box where you can type your
			query, followed by a possibility to choose one of the common indexes
			to search within. You would usually simply type the keywords you are
			interested in and hit return. For example, if you are interested in
			documents on <em>standard model</em> that are written by (or mention)
			<em>Ellis</em>, you would type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="ellis standard model">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			and on the search results page you could further add/remove keywords
			to get more precisely at what you are looking for, as is mentioned <a
			href="#boolean">below</a>.

			<p>The <strong>advanced search</strong> interface provides you with
			explicit tools to play with: you can change the matching type from the
			default word matching to phrase searching or the regular matching; you
			can use boolean queries in several indexes, etc. For example, to find
			all the documents written by <em>Ellis, J</em> spelled exactly that
			way that contain either of the words <em>muon</em> or
			<em>neutrino</em> in the title and that were published in
			<em>2001</em>, you would type:

			<blockquote>
			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">

			<p>Note that Simple Search can provide you basically the same
			functionality, if you make use of special syntax that is explained in
			the text below. The simple-versus-advanced does not refer to the
			functionality that is being provided but rather to the amount of
			parametrization you can "tweak". We conform to the common
			use of the simple/advanced terms as found in other search engines.

			<p>Much of what follows will deal with a question on "how a power user
			would use the simple search interface". Recall that you can always go
			to the Advanced Search for more query assistance.

			<p>After you submit your query, the search engine will analyze it and
			will try to always guide you in case no exact match could be found.
			For example, it would print you a list of closest indexed terms in
			case of spelling troubles:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="elllis muon">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>An alternative choices will be printed in red. The search engine
			will similarly and will warn you when your search terms could not be
			found, or when they could but your boolean query couldn't be met. The
			search engine will also silently try to search for alternative forms
			(e.g. removed punctuation), etc.

			<p>Thanks to multiple search stages and the guidance provided at each
			stage, it is usually sufficient to simple type what you are looking
			for and see what the system says in return. If you aren't satisfied,
			you would then add/remove words from your query until the satisfactory
			reply.

			<p>The default search mode is a <strong>search for words</strong>. This
			means that any whitespace you type is not significant, but is rather
			interpreted to mean "add an automatic boolean AND between words", like
			Google does. For example, to find all records that contain both the
			word <em>ellis</em> and the word <em>muon</em> anywhere in the record,
			type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="ellis muon">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			The whitespace would be significant if you include it within quotes.
			There are two phrase searching modes:

			<ol>

			<li>The double quotes instruct the search engine to <strong>search for
			exact phrase</strong>. This phrase search mode will match if and
			only if the given metadata field is exactly equal to the input
			pattern. For example, to find all documents written by <em>Ellis,
			J</em> spelled exactly that way, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value=""Ellis, J"">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option selected>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<li>The single quotes instruct the search engine to <strong>search for
			partial phrase</strong>. Unlike the exact phrase search, this
			mode allows for an extra text appearing before/after given
			pattern. This is somewhat similar to the "phrase search mode"
			common on Google and other fulltext engines that search for phrase
			expressions inside Web pages. For example, to find all the titles
			containing the expression <em>muon decay</em> regardless of the
			position of the expression in the title, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="'muon decay'">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option selected>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			Now you see how to search for an author spelled sometimes as
			<em>Ellis, J</em> and sometimes as <em>Ellis, Jonathan
			Richard</em> (and other authors, such as <em>De Lellis, Jim</em>)
			at the same time:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="'Ellis, J'">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option selected>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			(See also our specific <a href="#howto-search-for-author">author
			searching tips</a>.)

			</ol>

			The difference between exact and partial phrase searching modes may
			not be obvious upon first look. While the latter is more similar to
			what ``phrase search'' usually means in the context of web page search
			engines, the former one is usually an order of magnitude faster if you
			know the precise values you are looking for.

			We have already seen how whitespace adds a silent boolean AND in the

			<blockquote>

			<tr>
			<td rowspan=3 align=center>
			<strong>+<br>AND</strong>
			</td>

			<code>ellis +muon</code>

			of the words
			</td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
			<td>
			<code>ellis or muon</code>
			</td>
			<td>
			ditto, syntactic sugar
			</td>
			</tr>
			</table>
			</blockquote>

			<p>Logical operations are automatically chained from left to right (no
			parenthesis support at the moment). This permits you to easily refine
			your searching by adding/removing words with +,- signs. For example,
			to find the documents including words muon or kaon, as well as with the
			word ellis, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="muon or kaon +ellis">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			to get, say, 100 hits. Now if you want to exlude records dealing with
			the decay, append the exclusion term at the end:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="muon or kaon +ellis -decay">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			to get, say, 70 hits in a refined list. Keep adding/removing terms
			until the satisfaction.

			<p>Note again that a left-to-right boolean chaining means that, if you
			type <code>ellis muon or kaon</code> you will be effectively searching
			for a pseudo-expression "(ellis and muon) or kaon". A search for
			"ellis and (muon or kaon)" is to be written as <code>muon or kaon
			ellis</code>.

			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option selected>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">

			</form>

			For example, to find document with the report number

			<cz>Word truncation/stemming</cz>
			<no>Word truncation/stemming</no>
			</a></h3>

			<p>The word truncation is supported via asterisk (*) wildcard
			character. The wildcard instructs the search engine to match any
			number of characters in that place. For example, to find records
			that contain words <em>muon</em>, <em>muons</em>, <em>muonic</em>
			etc, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="muon*">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			The wildcard query works both in prefix and infix position. For
			example, to get all the words that start by <em>CERN-TH</em> and
			end by <em>31</em>, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="CERN-TH*31">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			Note that the wildcard will be ignored if you try to apply it to
			very short words, such as <em>a*</em>:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="a*">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			The wildcard character can be used also in the phrase searching
			mode. For example, to find all the documents whose title starts by
			"Neutrino mass", type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value=""Neutrino mass*"">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option selected>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			Recall that we have introduced exact and partial phrase search
			modes. Actually, a partial phrase search mode launches an exact
			search enclosed within wildcards: we could say that <code>'foo bar
			baz'</code> equals to <code>"foo bar baz"</code>. Now you can
			see why the partial phrase search is slow: due to the usage of two
			asterisks in front and after the text, each and every title in the
			database has to be looked up to determine whether it matches or
			not. (There are currently no partial phrase indexes.)

			<p>Searching within various bibliograpic fields (such as title,
			author) is supported via Google's <code>"site:"</code> like syntax.
			If a search term is preceded by a field name and a colon, then the
			term is searched for inside this field only. For example, to find
			documents containing the word <em>ellis</em> within author index,
			type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="author:ellis">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">

			</form>

			To select documents written by <em>Ellis</em> that contain words

			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">

			</form>

			The most common fields you may want to use are

			<p>All the syntax mentioned above can be combined together in one
			query. For example, to find documents that have the word
			<em>ellis</em> inside author fields, that do not contain words like
			<em>muon</em>, 'muonic' etc in any field, that contain the phrase
			(or the substring, to be more precise) 'dense quark matter' inside
			abstract fields, and that were published in year starting by digits
			'200', type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=60 type="text" name="p" value="author:ellis -muon* +abstract:'dense quark matter' year:200*">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			Note that the default "any field" global index does contain only the metadata terms,
			not the citation nor fulltext terms. You have to explicitely mention <code>fulltext</code>
			or <code>reference</code> index to search there. For example, to find the term <em>Higgs</em>
			in either metadata, references or fulltext files, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=60 type="text" name="p" value="higgs or reference:higgs or fulltext:higgs">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			This permits an interesting combination of metadata, fulltext and citation search in
			the same query. For example, to get all documents written by
			<em>Lin</em> whose fulltext files contain the words
			<em>Schwarzschild</em> and <em>AdS</em>, and who cite journal
			<em>Adv. Theor. Math. Phys.</em>, type:

			<p>You can search for an author in many ways, each having its own
			advantages and disadvantages.

			<ol>

			<li>First of all, note that searching for words isn't usually what you
			would want here. If you choose to search for the words <code>Ellis
			J</code> within the author index, it means that two queries (for the
			words <code>Ellis</code> and <code>J</code>) are effected first and a
			boolean AND is performed next:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="Ellis J">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option selected>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>Such a query would match also a document whose first author is
			<em>Ellis, R</em> and the second author <em>Finch, A J</em>, which is
			probably not what you wanted. While the search is very fast and you
			would have found the results for the author you were looking for, such
			a technique could have returned you many false positives, as the one
			cited above. Instead of searching for words, a more suitable
			technique to apply in this case is to search for phrases which will
			permit you to achieve higher search precisions.

			<li>The author names are usually stored in a form containing initials
			only, such as <em>Ellis, J</em>. To get the list of publications of
			an author whose name is spelled exactly that way, type:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="author:"Ellis, J"">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>This way of searching gives you the highest precision and no false
			positives. (Assuming there are no other authors whose names are
			spelled <em>Ellis, J</em>, an assumption that is often false<a
			href="#author-full-names"><sup>*</sup></a>.) The search is very fast.

			<li> Sometimes an author's first name may be spelled abbreviated on
			some documents (such as <em>Ellis, J</em>) and sometimes full on
			others (such as <em>Ellis, John</em>; eventually also with the middle
			name: <em>Ellis, John Rolfe</em>). To get the list of publications
			for all these forms at the same time, you could use a boolean OR
			query:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=60 type="text" name="p" value="author:"Ellis, J" or author:"Ellis, John" or author:"Ellis, John Rolfe"">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>This way of searching still keeps the highest precision and no
			false positives. (Assuming there are no other authors whose names are
			spelled <em>Ellis, J</em> or <em>Ellis, John</em>, an assumption that
			is often false<a href="#author-full-names"><sup>*</sup></a>.) The search is
			fast.

			<li>To match all of the above forms in a single search term, you can
			try to use a wildcard query:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="author:"Ellis, J*"">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>It would match all author names that start by the text
			<code>Ellis, J</code>, i.e. not only the wanted forms <em>Ellis,
			J</em> and <em>Ellis, John</em>, but also <em>Ellis, Jim</em>, or
			<em>Ellis, John Rolfe</em>, or <em>Ellis, Jonathan Richard</em>.

			<p>This way of searching returns you more results, which may be
			suitable in case you don't know how the names are spelled in the
			database. But you also risk the eventuality of getting false
			positives. The search is relatively fast.

			<li>Yet another, the most general alternative is to use a partial
			phrase matching:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="author:'Ellis, J'">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			<p>It would find not only all the authors mentioned above, but also
			the ones whose names contain the expression <code>Ellis, J</code>
			anywhere inside the name, such as <em>De Lellis, Jim</em>. It thus
			gives you the largest possible number of hits at the largest risk of
			false positives. The search is relatively slow.

			<p>(Note though that this way of searching may be very handy in case
			of compound family names such <em>Pepe-Altarelli, M</em> or <em>'t
			Hooft, G</em> where a casual user query for <em>Hooft, G</em> would
			match the wanted author, unlike the methods mentioned above.)

			</ol>

			<p><a name="author-full-names"><strong><sup>*</sup>NOTE:</strong></a>
			If you produce your own list of publications and you notice that
			sometimes your first name is spelled abbreviated and sometimes in
			full, or if you want to identify your publications among several
			authors with the same abbreviation, please contact the <a
			href="mailto:<ADMINEMAIL>">administrators</a> of <CDSNAMEINTL> so that
			they could work with you on inputting a consistently spelled and
			properly formatted first name everywhere. Only the consistent
			database content will ensure a proper author searching behaviour.

			</a></h4>

			<p>You may select a certain field according to which sort the search
			results, for example to sort the results by main title. However,
			sometimes you may want to sort by a report number and it happens
			that your documents have several of them. For example, the report
			numbers <em>hep-ph/0204140</em>, <em>CERN-TH-2002-069</em> and
			<em>RM3-TH-02-4</em> all denote <a
			href="<WEBURL>/search.py?p=CERN-TH-2002-069&f=reportnumber">the
			same document</a>. Now if you sort your search results set
			containing this document, the system will take into consideration
			the first report number, that may be either of these three.
			Sometimes you may want to classify this document under its
			<em>hep-ph</em> number, sometimes under its <em>CERN</em> number,
			depending on whether you produce a list of CERN or hep-ph
			publications. How can you influence the search engine to prefer
			one report number rather than the other?

			<p>In other words, the search engine by default answers a query
			like "sort by first author" or "sort by first report number", but
			sometimes you may want to ask the search engine to "sort by first
			report number that starts by the text <em>CERN-</em>". The latter
			possibility is available via a "silent" sort parameter called
			<code>sp</code> (for "sort pattern") that sorts preferentially
			according to the given textual pattern if they can be found. The
			parameter is "silent" in a way that it is not present in the search
			interface, you have to add it manually to your search URL.

			For example, to get all CERN-TH publications of the year 2001
			sorted by their CERN-TH numbers, you would search for
			<code>CERN-TH-2001*</code> within <code>reportnumber</code> index,
			and on the search results page, being satisfied with the results,
			you would add <code>&sp=CERN-TH</code> to the URL to sort the
			results preferentially by CERN-TH report numbers, to get a <a
			href="<WEBURL>/search.py?p=reportnumber%3A%22CERN-TH-2001*%22&sf=reportnumber&so=a&sp=CERN-TH">nicely
			sorted list</a> of all CERN-TH 2001 publications.

			automatically proposed in a box entitled "Try your search on". You
			can simply click on the proposed links to run your query on these
			search engines.

			<p>Note that the links aren't printed if the search engine doesn't
			support it. For example, SPIRES or KEK cannot search for terms within
			"any field", so we don't link to them in these cases.

			<ifeq "<CFG_CERN_SITE>" "1" "

			<p>Note also that KEK has scanned a lot of old CERN reports. If
			you find that we don't have fulltext to some old CERN report, it
			may be worthy to look there. For example, search for <em>CERN
			ISR-MA/73-17</em> in our system:

			<form action="<WEBURL>/search.py" method="get">
			<blockquote>
			<input size=40 type="text" name="p" value="CERN ISR-MA/73-17">
			<select name="f"><option value="">any field<option>title<option>author<option selected>reportnumber</select>
			<input class="formbutton" type="submit" name="action" value="SEARCH">
			</blockquote>
			</form>

			and you will see that CDS contains the document in the archives only, i.e. not in a electronic format.
			However, if you follow the proposed <a href="http://www-lib.kek.jp/cgi-bin/kiss_prepri?RP=CERN%20ISR-MA/73-17">KEK search link</a>,
			you will see that KEK proposes "scanned images" that you can download.
