BREAKING: Muon g-2 Experiment shows that Muons not behaving like standard model of physics proposes?

Proof of new physics from the muon's magnetic moment? Maybe not, according to a new theoretical calculation The trick is, computation methods develop at least as fast as instrumentation of colliders. So that what did look like anomaly in simplistic models before twenty years may not look so anomalous today, when many computationally demanding corrections can be taken into account with using of powerful computers.

Quote from Cydonia

Nice to learn recent evolvements in this way but what 's about links between Lenr and Muons ??

1. Future muon g-2 measurements could provide an important confirmation of Mills' GUT-CP (as per Stefan's post).

2. Muons in general are an important element of Holmlid's work, who aims to efficiently produce muons for true cold fusion.

Unluckily not. Mills model is incomplete like the SM. His reasoning works ony yfor simple coupling not for higher order ones.

Muon2 Expt shows only 4.2 sigma discrepancy with Standard model..

5 sigma

may be just round the corner ....or a decade away

but before that perhaps Standard Modellers using QCD can do better calculations

of the proton/neutron mass.

the best QCD can do after almost 50 years is 3%..accuracy

3% of 938 Mev is about 30 Mev..

3% doesn't sound like much but

its difficult to sort out what's happening in fusion when

the error in your calculations is over 4 times the energy yield..

4H----> He + ~27 Mev

These better calculations may actually wipe out many anomalies once they involve effects which are already behind muon-g2 discrepancies (Lamb shifts caused with cassimir vacuum and virtual quark field around muons). This is just a problem with epicycle based approach to theoretical physics: once you start with it, then you may never know, where to stop with it. The proton radius puzzle has similar development.

Interesting muons...

Does this shed light on the advanced PineScie LENR working theory? This patent was filed by Jerome Drexler and is cited by the PineScie/NASA 2016 patent ((Navy/GEC/NASA GRC Lattice Confinenent Fusion et al).

Vladimir Pines is an expert in this field of study.

Maybe a muon fusion patent does shed light on Pines

but the Muon G2 expt is too far way to get any light at all..

apparently 5 sigma could be 'BREAKING ' in early 2022

Additionally, Chris Polly announced that the systematic uncertainties will improve by almost 50%.

If the R-ratio results hold, we’ll have a chance to hit 5-sigma significance just next year.

The Standard Model is teetering, but still holds for now

So far the high energy physics (HEP) predictions failed fragrantly and Covid crisis slowed down plans for new collider in Cern, so it's important to understand that particle physicists need anomalies like muon G2 for to keep accelerator industry running. Of course there are many indicia of new physics at lower energy density scales, particularly in the area of cold fusion research but these don't promise so much profit for accelerator industry lobby and HEP theorists.

Phlogyston physics (standard model) will never make any valuable predictions as it is based on irrational believes - e.g. that matter and fields are equivalent.

To many mathematicians entered physics with absolute no clue of real - experimental - physics. Most of them never had a master class in mechanics. So these guys define theories without understanding the very basics of physics.
