The Muon g-2 collaboration announced their much-anticipated updated measurement today. The new result aligns with the collaboration’s first result, announced in 2021 — and it’s twice as precise. In ...

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 ...

Two independent lines of evidence from the world’s most powerful particle experiments are converging on the same ...

A subatomic particle called the muon is wobbling far more than leading physics models can explain. Its unusual behavior could be evidence of a fifth force of nature or a new dimension. Scientists ...

Physicists may have yet another fundamental particle left to discover. When physicists at the Large Hardon Collider discovered the Higgs boson back in 2012, they’d found the last missing piece of the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The Muon g−2 ring sits in its detector hall amidst electronics racks, the muon beamline, and other equipment at Fermi National ...

Seven years ago, a huge magnet was transported over 3,200 miles (5,150km) across land and sea, in the hope of studying a subatomic particle called a muon. Muons are closely related to electrons, which ...

UPTON, NY—William M. Morse of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory and Bradley Lee Roberts of Boston University will receive the American Physical Society’s 2023 W.K.H.

A new study suggests subatomic particles called muons are breaking the laws of physics. This may mean a mysterious force is affecting muons, which would make our understanding of physics incomplete.
