No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

Maybe it has something to do with a certain Russian billionaire’s superyacht. Or maybe it’s just because they love science.

A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the standard model.

The muon mismatch was caused by calculation limits, not a new force. Improved methods bring theory and experiment into close ...

For the past half century or so, a theory known by the understated name of the Standard Model has dominated the field of particle physics. This theory provides us with a detailed description of the 17 ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it. Baryons, composite particles made up of ...

A major obstacle in calculating the muon’s behavior is the strong force, the most powerful of the four fundamental forces, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak force. It binds quarks ...
