Is There a Fifth Fundamental Force?

New study proposes a testable “semantic field” as a fifth fundamental interaction—bridging information theory, language, and plant biology.

Theory: Extends gravity/EM/strong/weak by coupling semantic info to matter.

Experiment: N=270, 3 plant species; Bayesian analysis shows significant semantic effect.

If true, meaning could become a measurable force in physics.

Scientists Are Getting Closer to Finding Evidence of the Fifth Force

If it’s out there, could we observe it soon?

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story:

Some physicists believe that a fifth fundamental force could be the cause of some observational anomalies.
A study is investigating ways to closely examine the trajectories of well-documented asteroids to hopefully detect anomalies that could provide evidence of such a force.
Although the study shows no fifth force anomaly present in the asteroid Bennu, future explorations of the asteroid Apophis could provide an even better chance to find this elusive force—if it exists at all.

Scientists Are Getting Closer to Finding Evidence of the Fifth Force

An international team of scientists put the idea to the test thanks to mountains of data regarding OSIRIS-REx’s recent asteroid target Bennu.

Scientists at Fermilab are nearing the discovery of a fifth force of nature, a new type of interaction that could explain some of the mysteries of the universe. The fifth force could be related to the behaviour of muons, tiny particles similar to electrons. Muons wobble in a magnetic field in a way that does not match the predictions of the standard particle physics model, suggesting that something else is influencing them.

Bemused by the @BBC write-up of the #muon #gminus2 result - very cool to have this experimental precision, but when the theory prediction is still up in the air how can anyone say the #StandardModel isn't working and you need a #FifthForce? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-66407099

Scientists propose to use asteroids as probes for a hidden fifth force of nature. This force could be mediated by ultralight particles that might explain dark matter and dark energy. The tiny changes in asteroid orbits could reveal the presence of this new interaction.
