Re: [Vo]:Muons: 'Strong' evidence found for a new force of nature

Here is a more thorough discussion of the g-2 Fermi lab result as well as
another unusual finding at  LHCb.
Muons appear in both experiments although each is measuring something
different.

This article isn't giddy about the discrepancy.

-g-2-results/?sh=2317145b6c4b

It seems there are two ways to calculate g-2. The older way is a more
indirect method that uses other experimental results. The newer way is
completely theory driven and gives results which are closer to the Fermi
Lab results.

 It is possible that whatever it is Cambridge may have found relative to muons 
also relates to surprisingly efficient muon production in the Holmlid/Norront 
reactor... apparently there is a mystery particle which affects muons in a 
previously unknown way ? 

BTW from their site, Norront have 3 muon reactors working in Norway and one in 
Sweden. 

Things are getting interesting...

This whole UDD > muon thing may be near, or even gone past the proverbial 
"tipping point"... when we look back on it in a couple of years.

Muons: 'Strong' evidence found for a new force of natur

https://www.bbc.com/news/56643677

quotes:

There is currently a one in a 40,000 chance that the result could be a 
statistical fluke - equating to a statistical level of confidence described as 
4.1 sigma.
A level of 5 sigma, or a one in 3.5 million chance of the observation being a 
coincidence, is needed to claim a discovery.

Prof Ben Allanach, from Cambridge University, who was not involved with the 
latest effort, said: "My Spidey sense is tingling and telling me that this is 
going to be real.

The Muon g-2 experiment involves sending the particles around a 14-metre ring 
and then applying a magnetic field. Under the current laws of physics, encoded 
in the Standard Model, this should make the muons wobble at a certain rate.

Instead, the scientists found that muons wobbled at a faster rate than 
expected. This might be caused by a force of nature that's completely new to 
science.Harry
