Scientists at Fermilab are nearing the discovery of a fifth force of nature, a new type of interaction that could explain some of the mysteries of the universe. The fifth force could be related to the behaviour of muons, tiny particles similar to electrons. Muons wobble in a magnetic field in a way that does not match the predictions of the standard particle physics model, suggesting that something else is influencing them.

#KnowledgeByte: In physics, there are four observed #Fundamental #Interactions (also known as Fundamental #Forces) that form the basis of all known interactions in nature.
Some speculative theories have proposed a fifth force to explain various anomalous observations that do not fit existing theories. Recently some progress made in search for the #FifthForce.

"We think there could be another force, something that we are not aware of now. It is something different, which we call the '#FifthForce'..."

"It is something different, something we don't know about yet, but it should be important, because it says something new about the #Universe."

Bemused by the @BBC write-up of the #muon #gminus2 result - very cool to have this experimental precision, but when the theory prediction is still up in the air how can anyone say the #StandardModel isn't working and you need a #FifthForce? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-66407099

Scientists propose to use asteroids as probes for a hidden fifth force of nature. This force could be mediated by ultralight particles that might explain dark matter and dark energy. The tiny changes in asteroid orbits could reveal the presence of this new interaction.
