More Muon Magnetism

Posted by on Friday, August 18, 2023, In : Particle Physics 
Over the last few days, the scientific media has been reporting on a new result in quantum mechanics and particle physics, and promoting it as a major discovery or as the first signs of a fifth force of nature. The actual experimental result is the announcement of a more precise measurement of the magnetic moment of the muon, and further confirmation that it does not agree with the standard predictions of theoretical physics, but unfortunately it may not be as revolutionary as some articles a...

Room Temperature Superconductors

Posted by on Thursday, August 10, 2023,
There has been a lot of news coverage in recent weeks regarding the claimed discovery of a room temperature superconductor, and a lot of justified skepticism from the scientific community. In my own personal opinion, I believe that this latest claim will not withstand rigorous review and will be disproven, just based on some of the preliminary information from other research teams. However that is a different topic - today I will instead be reviewing exactly what a room temperature supercondu...
