Muon g-2 doubles down with latest measurement, explores uncharted territory in search of new physics
Scientists working on Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment released the world's most precise measurement yet of the magnetic moment of the muon, bringing particle physics closer to the ultimate showdown between theory and experiment that may uncover new ...
This story is part of Short Wave's series Space Camp about all the weird, wonderful things happening in the universe. Check out the rest of the series. What does it take to launch into space? Other than money, hard work and many moving parts, the answer ...
Back in 2021, America's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, better known as Fermilab, revealed there is something wrong with the muon, the heavier sibling of the electron. This fundamental particle is not behaving in the way predicted by our best theory ...
