Ezhela notes that this article documents 'Failure of universal Fermi interactions in the beta decay of hyperons.' 'We have searched for the leptonic decay of the A0 and E-. The sensitivity of the experiment was such that 5-6 events should have been found according to the predictions of the 'universal' V-A model of beta decay.' (abstract)
