Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...

Physicists at Kyushu University in Japan have outlined a technique that could bring one of the most elusive goals in modern ...

For nearly two centuries, physics textbooks have treated light as magnetically indifferent to the materials it passes through, a pure messenger of energy and information that leaves magnetic order ...

One of the most ubiquitous subatomic particles in the universe, the muon, seems to be misbehaving. Or at least, it isn't behaving the way physicists expect. In fact, muons are deviating so much from ...

A new study suggests subatomic particles called muons are breaking the laws of physics. This may mean a mysterious force is affecting muons, which would make our understanding of physics incomplete.
