- Abstract
This article 'Discovery of the First Yang-Mills Gauge Particle - The Gluon' is dedicated to Professor Chen Ning Yang. The Gluon is the first Yang-Mills non-Abelian gauge particle discovered experimentally. The Yang-Mills non-Abelian gauge field theory was proposed by Yang and Mills in 1954, sixty years ago. The experimental discovery of the first Yang-Mills non-Abelian gauge particle - the gluon - in the spring of 1979 is summarized, together with some of the subsequent developments, including the role of the gluon in the recent discovery of the Higgs particle.
