In the world of particle physics, you are never alone — quite literally. Every moment there is an invisible rainstorm of subatomic particles falling down on us from space. Unlike the kind of matter we ...

A new measurement by CERN’s ATLAS Collaboration has strengthened evidence that the masses of fundamental particles originate through their interaction with the Higgs field. Building on earlier results ...

Physicists now have a brand-new measurement of a property of the muon called the anomalous magnetic moment that improves the precision of their previous result by a factor of 2. An international ...

A tiny wobbling particle may be about to reveal a fifth force of nature, scientists behind one of the biggest particle physics experiments say. Physicists at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, ...

New home: the Muon g-2 ring sits in its detector hall at Fermilab, where it studies precession of muons. (Courtesy: Reidar Hahn/Fermilab) A long-standing discrepancy between the predicted and measured ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) sparked worldwide excitement in March as particle physicists reported tantalizing evidence for new physics – potentially a new force of nature. Now, our new result, yet ...

Here’s how physicists calculate g-2, the value that will determine whether the muon is giving us a sign of new physics. Like racecars on a track, thousands of particles called muons zip around an ...

UPTON, NY—William M. Morse of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory and Bradley Lee Roberts of Boston University will receive the American Physical Society’s 2023 W.K.H.
