Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...

In 2001 at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, a facility used for research in nuclear and high-energy physics, scientists experimenting with a subatomic particle called a muon ...

A mysterious magnetic property of subatomic particles called muons hints that new fundamental particles may be lurking undiscovered. In a painstakingly precise experiment, muons’ gyrations within a ...

Two decades ago, an experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory pinpointed a mysterious mismatch between established particle physics theory and actual lab ...

The experiment's third and final result, based on the last three years of data, is in perfect agreement with previous results, further solidifying the experimental world average. Scientists working on ...

FOR decades, physicists have been aware of a gnawing anomaly in the behaviour of a mysterious fundamental particle, the muon. Muons are the heavier cousins of the electrons that run though power lines ...

In the world of particle physics, you are never alone — quite literally. Every moment there is an invisible rainstorm of subatomic particles falling down on us from space. Unlike the kind of matter we ...

The Muon g-2 Collaboration has doubled the precision of their 2021 measurement of the muon’s magnetic moment and it disagrees with the predictions based on the standard model of physics. Muons are ...

Some have argued that the good agreement between lattice–QCD and the final measurement of Fermilab’s muon g–2 experiment ...

Two decades ago, an experiment pinpointed a mysterious mismatch between established particle physics theory and actual lab measurements. Researchers have used a supercomputer to help narrow down the ...

UPTON, NY and LEMONT, IL—Two decades ago, an experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory pinpointed a mysterious mismatch between established particle physics ...
