The LHC and the Muon G2 Experiment Have Discovered New and Surprising Physics

The Higgs boson was a huge accomplishment, but no supersymmetry observations emerged from any of the experiments that happened afterwards.

Even though the LHC hasn't found any superpowers yet, it has come across a strange anomaly lately. The muon G2 experiment recently investigated how muons wobble when magnetic fields interact with their spin. It found a small but significant deviation from some theoretical predictions suggesting unknown forces or particles may be at work.
