Zeta Revisited: Have We Really Seen the Higgs?
Bertram M. Schwarzschild · Physics Today · 1985
Much excitement was generated last summer at the XXII International Conference on High Energy Physics in Leipzig by the Crystal Ball collaboration's report of evidence for a curious new particle, the 8.32-GeV “zeta” boson, that might well have been the long-sought-after Higgs particle. In October (PHYSICS TODAY, page 18) we reported that this hint of the Higgs had set in motion considerable activity among particle theorists, because these data were not entirely consistent with the simplest Higgs particle one might have expected.
