The Mystery of the Muon's Magnetism Deepens

Physicists working on the 'muon g-2' experiment at Fermilab near Chicago have revealed their latest measurement of the magnetism of a fundamental particle called the muon, improving on a measurement they released back in 2021 that made headlines around the world. Does this new measurement confirm their previous findings, and could it hint at the existence of new particles or forces?
