The UA1 experiment was a particle physics experiment conducted at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in the early 1980s. It was part of the larger family of experiments that contributed to the discovery of the W and Z bosons, which are fundamental particles responsible for the weak nuclear force. The UA1 collaboration was a prominent experiment at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) collider and aimed to study proton-antiproton collisions.
