New experimental results show particles called muons can be corralled into beams suitable for high-energy collisions, paving the way for new physics. New experimental results show particles called ...

The Muon g−2 ring sits in its detector hall amidst electronics racks, the muon beamline, and other equipment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Ill. The Standard Model of particle ...

When the results of an experiment don’t match predictions made by the best theory of the day, something is off. Fifteen years ago, physicists at Brookhaven National Laboratory discovered something ...

The US physics community dreams of building a muon collider. In the spring of 2022, Karri DiPetrillo was gearing up for the final step of the Snowmass particle physics community planning process. It ...

The long-awaited first results from the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory show fundamental particles called muons behaving in a way that is not predicted by scientists’ best ...

Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory has published its first results from the Muon g-2 experiment, hinting at 'yet undiscovered particles or forces.' At the core of the effort is confirmation that ...

Scientists working on Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment released the world's most precise measurement yet of the magnetic moment of the muon, bringing particle physics closer to the ultimate showdown ...

Once a surprise to physicists, these particles are useful tools inside and outside the realm of particle physics.

Scientists in Illinois' Fermilab are studying the physics of a muon particle in their Muon g-2 experiment that seems to break our current models of physics, or at least extend physics beyond the ...

New experimental results show particles called muons can be corralled into beams suitable for high-energy collisions, paving the way for new physics. Particle accelerators are best known for colliding ...

The first results from the Muon g-2 experiment hosted at Fermilab show fundamental particles called muons behaving in a way not predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics. DOE/Fermi National ...
