  3. RPP Sections in charge • Neutrinos (astrophysical) • Top quark • 4th generation quarks • Higgs bosons • Axions and light bosons • Heavy bosons (W’, Z’, leptoquarks, etc.) • Technicolor • Compositeness (contact int., excited q/l, etc.) • WIMPs and other searches • (formerly Supersymmetry) PDG Advisory Committee Meeting

  4. Current Encoders In addition, T. Watari oversees the Heavy Boson section. PDG Advisory Committee Meeting
