Our Science paper has now been posted to the Cornell preprint server (arXiv), and is available at
http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.5238
Click on the 'PDF' link on the upper right to get the complete text.
For those of you not familiar with science publishing, the preprint server contains the full text (as of today) of 892,854 scientific papers, covering most of physics and math, as uploaded by the authors. In high-energy and nuclear physics, virtually every relevant paper is uploaded to the server, usually at the same time that it is submitted to a journal or conference proceedings. Although it does not provide the benefits of peer review, it does provide quick access to the latest work - papers appear between 24 and 48 hours after they are uploaded.
The server also has a search facility, but, for particle/nuclear physics, I prefer INSPIRE . INSPIRE isn't perfect, but it has broader coverage than the arXiv, since it provides overage before 1995, when the arXiv was established. The arXiv coverage was also very spotty for the first ~ decade of operation. INSPIRE also covers most of the relevant articles that are not uploaded to the arXiv.
