For years, one tiny mismatch in particle physics carried outsized hopes. The muon, a heavier and short-lived cousin of the ...

Recent findings from research we have been carrying out at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern in Geneva suggest that we ...

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 ...

Researchers at CERN's Large Hadron Collider have observed a rare B meson decay pattern that deviates from Standard Model predictions by four standard deviations. The result, from the LHCb experiment, ...

Physicists have spent the last 20 years pondering an apparent discrepancy between experimental results and theoretical ...
