Riken Research: Centennial Issue: 100 Years since 1917. 2017, Japan

RIKEN is one of Japan's most imporant scientific research organizations, distributed over several campuses. The 100th anniversary issue of their magazine in Hawking's office is a historical account of the most important achievements since their foundation in 2017, including several Nobel prizes.

The entire issue is currently available online:

Most of the journals and magazines in Stephen Hawking's office were transient items, which would have entered upon publication, and gradually circulated out in a relatively short time frame. The vast majority of such items in the office date from the last years of Stephen's life, from 2015 onwards, and haphazardly reflect on subscriptions, affiliations and societies where he happened to be most active at that moment in time.
