THE MUON
The new results from a massive experiment conducted at the US Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Illinois appear to indicate the presence of something mysterious beyond the current reaches of science. Is it true that our material world and beings are made up from the unseen particles and forces. They have managed since the 1970s to put a lot of things together, theoretically, that explain magnetic interactions and forces that govern our physical world. But, there are a number of questions they haven’t still understood. This new finding reveals that there must be something else beyond what we currently know.
They detected particles called muons behaving slightly differently than currently accepted physics theories. Those mysterious forces could perhaps be from undiscovered types of particles that are changing the muon’s magnetic strength. They are making great effort to study the subatomic world. These muons are naturally created when cosmic rays traveling from the sun, other planets, and the universe beyond our solar system reach and interact with Earth’s atmosphere. These particles are about 200 times heavier than electrons. Because they have an electric charge and are spinning around, they generate a magnetic field—they act like tiny spinning magnets. Those strong magnetic fields trap the muons in a magnetic racetrack as the particles travel around at incredibly high speeds, almost at the speed of light. Millions of muons are produced every second. Professor Kotwal said that the result had taken them over 10 years to record and scrutinise a dataset of around 450 trillion collisions.
Those muons spin around the donut-shaped racetrack, they wobble as if on an internal axis, like a top or gyroscope. The strength of the muons’ magnetic field, which physicists call the “g-factor,” determines how much it wobbles. The g-factor is influenced by the muon’s interactions with the sea of subatomic particles that naturally exist all around it—a constantly changing “foam” of short-lived particles. It is an extraordinary day, long awaited not only by us but by the whole international physics community. Researchers discovered that there was an extensive network of “virtual particles” constantly popping in and out of existence from the quantum vacuum. Dark matter, for instance, makes up about 27% of the universe; and this experiment may point researchers in the right direction to know it. And yet, scientists still have no idea what it’s made of. For 20 years it has been researched and now it is being so gratifying to finally be resolving this mystery.
