"The discovery of the W particle in the UA1 detector from the October-December 1982 run of the proton-antiproton collider, producing a high transverse energy electron (arrowed). This particle is produced back-to-back with 'missing energy', indicative of the emission of an invisible neutrino. The UA1 detector ran on the SPS accelerator at CERN between 1981 and 1993.
