'What Monsters Might Be Lurking There?': Scientists Say Particle May Overturn Laws Of Physics - The Daily Wire

The Standard Model should be able to predict the “magnetic moment” with precision, but if additional forces or particles lie within the quantum foam that the Standard Model cannot explain, the muon’s g-factor would be affected.

“The predecessor experiment at DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, which concluded in 2001, offered hints that the muon’s behavior disagreed with the Standard Model.

In 2006, the final result of the 2001 research at the the Brookhaven National Laboratory was announced, and there was a discrepancy with the Standard Model’s prediction.

The latest results closely matched the results from Brookhaven: “Taken together, they boost the statistical significance to 4.2 sigma—teetering just on the verge of the threshold required for discovery,” Ouelette noted, adding, “That means there is only a 1 in 40,000 chance that this is due to a statistical fluctuation.”.

Polly noted a graph showing white space where the latest results differed from the Standard Model, then said, “We can say with fairly high confidence there must be something contributing to this white space
