Tiny particles can point to big mysteries. With contributions from Argonne, the @Fermilab Muon g-2 experiment has set the world's most stringent direct limit on the muon's electric dipole moment, a property that could reveal new physics if detected: bit.ly/4zw7dff

The Muon g-2 collaboration recently announced a new measurement of a property of the muon called the electric dipole moment. This result shows that if a muon EDM exists, it must be smaller than what the Muon #gminus2 experiment can currently detect. news.fnal.gov/2026/08/muon-g…
