Abstract

Some five years have now passed since the discovery at CERN and at FNAL of muonless neutrino-induced events, events whose interpretation strongly suggested the existence of a {weak neutral current (WNC)} × {weak neutral current (WNC)} interaction. At present, such a {WNC} × {WNC} is not only firmly established with its structure essentially determined, but its relationship to the {weak charged current (WCC)} × {weak charged current (WCC)} interaction and to the electromagnetic {EM} interaction is also rather well understood.
