But if the quantum foam contains additional forces or particles not accounted for by the Standard Model, that would tweak the muon g-factor further.

gravitons?

Particle physicists are like very picky accountants. In every experiment the energy books must balance to the expected theoretically predicted value (within some inevitable measurement error) or they begin to think there’s a hidden accountant somewhere they don’t know about that is cooking the books.

This was the kind of problem that perplexed physicists at the turn of the 20th century and was called the “ultraviolet catastrophe” of radiating bodies. What finally emerged from this problem was quantum mechanics and QFT. Much of the modern world is now dependent on solid state devices that resulted from our understanding of these quantum effects.

The quantum foam is also known as the vacuum energy or dark energy and makes up 75% of the energy of the universe. If there is a way to tap some hidden account in this energy bank we might be able to control energies beyond our imagination in the future.

Where’s the Gorilla Glueon research?

The glueon research funding is currently stuck so the research is on hold.

They may discover that every time they record an anomaly, the event is preceded by the janitor placing his mop against the collider the night before.

I made B’s and it is Greek to me too. Anyway, I hope these folks have a great time with their Muons.

When Jesus comes back He can explain everything in ten minutes. After all, He created the whole shootin’ match.

Great thought. The Master can tell us about it.

Is quantum foam like primordial soup or do you have to add your own seasonings and whisk ‘til firm *-?

Maybe they will use moun theory to prevent spam robocalls on cell phones.

I understood about 40 words, but enough to ask timidly, can muon production be scaled and be used as a foundation for an antigravity or propulsion mechanism?

Need quantum foam energy storage battery so when matter and energy go in and out of existence we can have back up. Otherwise the world will end when quantum foam fizzles out.

A muon is about 200 times as massive as its cousin, the electron

So that's why it has a mumu on?

I got A’s in physics and I don’t understand it either. I don’t think physics went that deep in my school days, but I’m happy they’re happy, good for them.

These virtual particles only appear to pop in and out of existence. Reality has more dimensions than the 3 we experience everyday. Most of the forces we experience are also limited to 3 dimensions so it seems that the 3 are all there is. This strange behavior is due to things which have those extra dimensions involved.

I’ll say it’s an extraordinary day. It’s my birthday. Now I’m officially old to enough for Medicare.
