New measurement of wobbling muons back up previous findings – potentially challenging the Standard Model of Particle Physics.

The latest work on the muon could vindicate one of science’s most powerful theories, or reveal previously unseen particles and forces.

The Muon g-2 collaboration's new result of the anomalous magnetic moment improves the precision of their previous one by a factor of 2.

It may trigger a revolution in the world of physics and prove to be the most important discovery after Einsteins Theory of Relativity. They call it the fifth force of nature. What is it?

A James Madison University physicist and a group of students were contributors to experiments related to the announcement of a second groundbreaking particle physics discovery.

The peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon in a US laboratory experiment is making scientists increasingly suspect they are missing something in their understanding of physics - perhaps some unknown particle or force. Researchers on Thursday announced new findings about the muon (pronounced MEW-on), a magnetic and negatively charged particle similar to its cousin the electron but 200 times more massive, in their experiment at the US Energy Department's Fermi National Accelera...

Physicists believe an unknown force could be acting on sub-atomic particles known as muons.

MIT School of Science granted tenure to 14 faculty members in the departments of Biology, Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Chemistry, Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, and Physics.

Dr Tommi Markkanen, an expert on the False Vacuum has kindly answered these questions in an email interview: 1. Does a false vacuum decay due to quantum tunneling have a realistic chance happening in my lifetime or already be on its way? The answer is a resounding ‘no’.

Galaxy NGC 1277 has a surprising lack of dark matter, puzzling scientists.
