Abstract
We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.14±0.12 GeV/c2, and its width to be 2.42-0.35+0.45 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.46±0.10 GeV, corresponding to 2.8±0.6 neutrino species, with a 95%-confidence-level upper limit of 3.9. © 1989 The American Physical Society.
