...hard look at a particle called the Z 0, which will emerge in great numbers from the electron-positron collisions. The discovery of the Z 0 and two related particles, W+ and W-, in 1982 and 1983 won a Nobel for CERN scientists Rubbia and Simon van der Meer. The three particles carry the weak nuclear force, one of the four fundamental forces of nature, which is responsible for radioactive decay...
...from Tampa, a small but fertile baseball city that, like the spring- training teams that invigorate the region every March, seems to specialize in the unlikeliest dreams. "Kids are always chasing rainbows," says Johnny Vander Meer, 71, a local resident, "but baseball is a world where you can catch them." While he had a losing record overall with the Reds, Cubs and Indians, Vander Meer pitched two consecutive no-hitters in 1938. As a craftsman, Gooden puts him in mind of Ewell Blackwell; as a hard thrower, he recalls Van Lingle Mungo. "But no one I ever...

...netmen (14-3 overall, 7-0 Eastern Intercollegiate Tennis Association) did not lose a set all weekend as they swept Army and Cornell, matching in their own way Vander Meer's back-to-back no-hitters for hte Cincinatti Reds...
Rubbia, who shared the Prize with Simon van der Meer of Holland, headed a team that used a 200-ton atom smasher to produce clear evidence of the subatomic W and Z particles. These particles, sought by physicists for 10 years, are believed to carry the "week force," one of the four fun damental natural forces in the universe...
