What does the Standard Model predict for the muon's magnetic moment?

Predicting the numerical value of the muon’s magnetic moment is one of the most challenging calculations in high-energy physics. Some physicists spend most of their careers improving their calculations with greater precision. Why do physicists care about the magnetic properties of this particle? Because the information of each particle and force is encoded in the … Read more

Artificial intelligence and supercomputing to predict extreme weather events

02:52 What if you could tell where the next big flood will hit or which region might be devastated by a drought? Could an artificial intelligence (AI) model be used to predict which forest area was most at risk from potentially catastrophic fires? Advances in supercomputing and artificial intelligence mean this will soon become a … Read more
