Scientists believe they could be nearing the discovery of a new fifth force of nature.
It came after an experiment confirmed the peculiar wobble of a subatomic particle called a muon.
The findings suggest scientists may be missing something in their current understanding of physics, perhaps some unknown particle or force.
Muons are fundamental particles, similar to electrons, that orbit an atom’s nucleus, but they are more than 200 times heavier.
......
Muons, like electrons, have a tiny internal magnet that causes them to wobble.
The speed of the wobble in the experiment varied considerably from what was predicted, suggesting it was affected by a mysterious factor.
A previous experiment in 2021 similarly showed an anomalous wobble.
