In particle physics, the W and Z bosons are vector bosons that are together known as the weak bosons or more generally as the intermediate vector bosons. These elementary particles …

Discovered in 1983 by physicists at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN, the Z boson is a neutral elementary particle. Like its electrically charged cousin, the W boson, the Z boson …

In particle physics, a boson (/ ˈ b oʊ z ɒ n / [1] / ˈ b oʊ s ɒ n / [2]) is a subatomic particle whose spin quantum number has an integer value (0, 1, 2, ...). Bosons form one of the two …

In particle physics, W′ and Z′ bosons (or W-prime and Z-prime bosons) refer to hypothetical gauge bosons that arise from extensions of the electroweak symmetry of the Standard Model. They …

The Z Boson. Every once in a while, without warning, an electron is accelerated seemingly out of nowhere. Ripped from whatever atom, molecule or metal it had been associated with, it …

The Z-boson properties reported in this section may broadly be categorized as: • The standard ‘lineshape’ parameters of the Z consisting of its mass, MZ, its total width, ΓZ, and its partial …

The physicists began sifting through collision data in 1981, and just two years later they found the first unambiguous signals of the Z boson. The discovery of Z bosons was an extraordinary …

The Z boson is a heavy particle that is one of the carriers of the weak force. It is a partner of the W+ and W-bosons that mediate radioactive decay processes. The Z boson was first …

Feb 19, 2025 · As the carriers of the weak force, the W and Z bosons are central to the Standard Model of particle physics. Though discovered four decades ago, the W and Z bosons continue …

Das Z-Boson (Formelzeichen ) ist ein Eichboson und damit ein Elementarteilchen. Es vermittelt ebenso wie das mit ihm verwandte W-Boson die schwache Wechselwirkung. Während das W …
