Why some physicists are skeptical about the muon experiment that hints at new physics Salon 2 hrs ago © Provided by Salon Muon g-2 ring he Muon g-2 ring sits in its detector hall amidst electronics racks, the muon beamline, and other equipment. This impressive experiment operates at negative 450 degrees Fahrenheit and studies the precession (or wobble) of muons as they travel through the magnetic field. Reidar Hahn/Fermilab One of the smallest things in the universe could have just changed everything we know about it.  On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Energy s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Illinois revealed much-anticipated results from a storied particle physics experiment known as Muon g-2. The bizarre results, which showed something quite different than what standard theories projected, shocked physicists around the world and, if confirmed, suggest that fundamental physics theories may be wrong.
