Measurements of the muon magnetic moment strengthen a previously reported tension with theoretical predictions, ushering in a new era of precision tests of the standard model.

Jorge Cham, aka, PHD Comics, illustrates the excitement over the muon anomaly results in a set of cartoons he made for Physics.

To precisely measure the magnetic moment of the muon, physicists first needed to precisely measure the field produced by the 680-ton magnet that guides the muons.

A study of long-range interactions in disordered systems yields a surprising result: Transport can increase with disorder.

A nanoscale, graphene-based device takes advantage of the wave nature of electrons and provides a level of control that will be useful for quantum computers.

The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration has updated a model of the Universe to correctly capture more galaxy measurements.

2021 may be the year of the space rock, with scientists combing through new (and old) samples from the Moon and asteroids, while plans for a pick-and-collect mission to Mars get under way.

A detector made from superconducting qubits could allow researchers to search for dark matter particles 1000 times faster than other techniques can.
