Sato–Tate conjecture for non-CM elliptic curves

Let EE be an elliptic curve without complex multiplication. For each prime pp, write the Frobenius trace as

ap=2pcosφp.a_p=2\sqrt{p}\cos\varphi_p.

Sato–Tate conjecture. The angles φp\varphi_p are equidistributed in [0,π][0,\pi] with respect to the Sato–Tate density measure

2πsin2φdφ.\frac{2}{\pi}\sin^2\varphi\,d\varphi.

The conjecture describes the distribution of Frobenius angles for non-CM elliptic curves. The source says that Sato computed the distribution and Tate gave theoretical evidence, but it does not state the later resolution of the conjecture.
