Is the Standard Model of Physics Now Broken?
Scientific American Is the Standard Model of Physics Now Broken? The discrepancy between the theoretical prediction and the experimentally determined value of the muon's magnetic moment has become slightly stronger with a new result from Fermilab. But what does it mean? Print The Muon g-2 magnetic storage ring, seen here during its relocation from Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island to the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory outside Chicago, is a central component of the project's quest for new physics.
