If there are no flavor changing z0 weak interactions, how do we even know that the particle exists? I thought that we could only tell which particle was exchanged by the particles it decays into. Is this wrong?
Oh ok. So a z0 Boson interaction is one where charge is conserved? (since the z0 carries no charge)How would the absence of flavour changing Z0 interactions preclude the knowledge of its existence? You will still see the decays to particle-antiparticle pairs just the same. The cleanest way of producing Z0 is to collide electrons with positrons at the Z0 resonance.
Yeah
