Physicists Mesmerized by Deepening the Mystery of Muon Particle Magnetism

Fermilab’s Muon g − 2 experiment uses this circular electromagnet to store muons, so that their magnetic moment can be measured with unprecedented precision.Credit: Brookhaven National Laboratory/SPL Theoretical predictions move closer to experimental outcomes, but questions stay concerning possible gaps in the standard model of particle physics. The muon's mysteries still leave physicists mesmerized. Last year, an experiment...

How The Universe Acquired Its Magnetic Fields

Hidden magnetic field lines stretch millions of light years across the universe. Credit:  Quanta Magazine. When we look into space, all of the astrophysical objects seen are enclosed in magnetic fields. This holds not only in the neighborhood of stars and planets but likewise in the deep space between galaxies and galactic clusters. These fields are...
