From Vox, May 12, 2021: Fermilab’s Jessica Esquivel explains the results of a new experiment out of Fermilab – involving a subatomic particle wobbling weirdly – could pave the way to new ways of understanding our universe.
Standard Model
From Nature, May 5, 2021: The established theory of the standard model, and has passed a vast number of experimental tests with flying colors. But one such test — the determination of the magnetic moment of an elementary particle known as the muon — has resulted in a long-standing discrepancy between theory and experiment.
From the CERN Courier, May 3, 2021: Fermilab’s Muon g-2 result announcement strengthened the longstanding tension between the measured and predicted values of the muon’s anomalous magnetic moment.
From U.S. News and World Report, April 24, 2021: A team of University of Kentucky professors were part of a large-scale physics experiment at Fermilab showing results that point to a potential gap in the Standard Model of physics.
From Physics World (podcast), April 29, 2021: Fermilab’s Jessica Esquivel talks with Physics World Stories about the Muon g-2 result that offers a tantalizing glimpse of new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.
From Tec Review, April 28: Tec Review interviews Fermilab’s David Tarazona about his role and experience with the Muon g-2 experiment.
News Talk (UK radio talk show), April 27, 2021: Dr Chris Parkes, Professor of Experimental Particle Physics at Manchester University, and Spokesperson for LHCb Collaboration discusses the Muon g-2 result.
From Marianne TV (France), April 21, 2021: An interview on the Muon g-2 experiment result with Laurent Lellouch, CNRS research director at the Theoretical Physics Center and the Universe Physics Institute.
From the Observador (Portugal), April 18, 2021: The Muon g-2 experiment confirmed a small discrepancy previously detected between the measured values and those calculated by the most advanced theory we have with the probability that this measure is a statistical error is 1 in 100,000.
From Forbes, April 17, 2021: Fermilab scientist Don Lincoln explores the Muon g-2 result announcement about a new measurement that disagrees in a very significant way with predictions from the Standard Model.
