#Physicists think they’ve solved the #muon mystery
Results dash hopes for a fifth force but provide very precise proof of the #StandardModel of #particlephysics and quantum field theory. According to a paper published in the journal Nature, the discrepancy is due to a calculation fluke, not exciting new #physics, so the Standard Model of particle physics is still holding strong.

So the #muon behaves like the #standard #model expects it to. What happens to #dark #energy #research with no fifth force looming? PROMPT: Do the findings in the article, scitechdaily.com/scientists-w..., affect the research about dark energy and dark matter? If so, what are the implications?

i have added a #muon build to #pkgconf CI. the goal of this is to allow us to begin thinking about deprecating the autotools-based build system.

this won't happen until next year, most likely, but muon is sufficiently complete at this point that i think it solves the bootstrapping problem enough that we can start thinking about getting rid of the autotools stuff, probably in pkgconf 3.1 or so.

VOID/walk maps or divines the entropic overgrounds outside all time and space.

In the Atacama desert (or at any so-called place, as always undefined and unbidden by the formal constraints or affordances of place), several walks were conducted, accompanied by a device equipped with accurate GPS, and a muon/cosmic ray coincidence detector. Using this apparatus, we constructed maps of stochastic cosmic ray incidence in time and in space. This technique of mapping coincides to some extent with the practice of muon tomography, a technique for imaging and locating hidden voids within dense structures, for example locating VOID tombs or memory locations embedded within the concrete global geo-bus.
