At the heart of every star, a process called fusion is taking place, and that's what makes stars shine. Fusion powers stars for millions or billions of years. Now imagine if we could harness the power of the stars. 🔋

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…
