>LUNAR TIDAL EFFECTS are the main cause of error in
>determining the mass of the Z boson.  Scientists at the CERN
>laboratory in Geneva, Switzerland, with help from workers at
>SLAC and the University of Lausanne, have found that the Moon's
>gravitational pull warps the LEP (Large Electron Positron) collider
>by as much as a millimeter (out of a total circumference of 27
>km).  This blurs the Z mass estimates by about 10 MeV.
>Hereafter, calibrations of the beam energy will take into account
>the phase of the Moon. (CERN press release, 23 Nov. 1992.)
