The Higgs boson’s decay into muons happens in only about one in every 5000 Higgs decays. So, the team had to search for a ...

The latest work on the muon could vindicate one of science’s most powerful theories, or reveal previously unseen particles and forces.

Scientists have never directly detected dark matter, but some wonder if one high-energy detection in 2023 could be a rare ...

Particle Physicists Agree on a Road Map for the Next Decade A “muon shot” aims to study the basic forces of the cosmos. But meager federal budgets could limit its ambitions.

After six years of collecting data, the muon g-2 experiment released its results and could chart a new path for particle physics.

The ATLAS collaboration finds evidence of Higgs-boson decays to muons and improves sensitivity to Higgs-boson decays to a Z ...

We may already have had our first-ever encounter with dark matter, according to researchers who say a mysteriously high-energy particle detected in 2023 is not a neutrino after all, but something far ...

The unusually large Muon has threatened the Standard Model for decades, but new data parks the particle inside the cozy confines of established physics.

The most anticipated particle physics result of recent years is here—but the real news came one week before: the “muon g–2 anomaly” might have never existed ...

A tense particle-physics showdown will reach new heights in 2025. Over the past 25 years researchers have seen a persistent and growing discrepancy between the theoretical predictions and experimental ...
