A long-running experiment finds a tiny particle is still acting weird

Final results from a long-running U.S.-based experiment show a tiny particle continues to act strangely -- but that’s still good news for the laws of physics as we know them. The mysterious particles called muons wobble like a top when inside a magnetic field. Previous experiments found the muons were behaving strangely, which didn't fit well with the foundational rulebook of physics. New data adds fuel to that fire, but scientists have found a way to make the findings agree with the Standard Model of Physics. Results were announced Tuesday and were submitted to the journal Physical Review Letters.

Anomaly no more! "Muon g-2" puzzle resolved at last

When theory and experiment disagree, it could mean new physics. This time, they solved the muon g-2 puzzle, and saved the Standard Model.

Muons used to test the condition of a road bridge in Estonia

This week, a new technology was tested in Jõgisoo, Harju County, as part of a nearly €1.3 million research project. Using cosmic radiation and artificial intelligence, the technology aims to assess the technical condition of bridges without the need for destructive testing.
