It explains that this combination gives rise to massive spin-1 bosons. This construction is used to propose fundamental equations for the weak interaction. The predictions of these equations for high-energy neutrino scattering are worked out and compared to experiment.","PeriodicalId":438621,"journal":{"name":"Concepts of Elementary Particle Physics","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121999397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
