First results from Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment strengthen evidence of new physics
Particles called muons behave in a way not predicted by scientists' best theory The Muon g-2 ring sits amid electronic racks, the muon beamline and other equipment. April 9, 2021 The first results from the Muon g-2 experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory show fundamental particles called muons behaving in a way that is not predicted by scientists' best theory, the Standard Model of particle physics. The results are published in the journal The strong evidence that muons deviate from the Standard Model calculation might hint at exciting new physic...
