The puzzling behavior of a fundamental particle called the muon that some scientists think may be a sign of new physics may actually be explained by current theory, according to new calculations that proponents say are the most accurate to date. But not all physicists are convinced.
Muons are tiny charged particles similar to electrons, but much more massive. Their electric charge causes them to spin and wobble slightly when placed in a magnetic field. This motion can be measured as…
