Zassenhaus's order conjecture for torsion units in integral group rings

Let GG be a finite group. Write V(ZG)V(\mathbb{Z}G) for the group of augmentation-one units of the integral group ring, and let uV(ZG)u\in V(\mathbb{Z}G) be a torsion unit.

Zassenhaus's order conjecture. There exists an element gGg\in G such that

u=g.|u|=|g|.

This is a basic conjecture in the theory of integral group rings. The paper's abstract states that it is proved for PSL(2,8)PSL(2,8) and PSL(2,17)PSL(2,17), while the assertion for arbitrary finite groups remains open.
