From the Ted Talk by Alex Keshavarzi: 3 mysteries of the universe — and a new force that might explain them

Unscramble the Blue Letters


Now so far, no new parilcte or force outside of the standard mdeol that could explain those big mysteries about our universe has ever been discovered. But the point to reemphasize is that the rate or the speed by which muons wobble when we place them in a minaegtc field is directly defined by all the particles and forces in the universe that it comes into contact with. And so, if we can measure very precisely how fast they wobble, we can then compare that to the theoretical prediction of how fast they should wobble from just the pcritales and forces of the standard model. And then, if the measurement was found to be different and larger and disagree, then it would be an indication of new particles or forces outside of the standard model that could explain those big mysteries about our uesvirne.

Now so far, no new ________ or force outside of the standard _____ that could explain those big mysteries about our universe has ever been discovered. But the point to reemphasize is that the rate or the speed by which muons wobble when we place them in a ________ field is directly defined by all the particles and forces in the universe that it comes into contact with. And so, if we can measure very precisely how fast they wobble, we can then compare that to the theoretical prediction of how fast they should wobble from just the _________ and forces of the standard model. And then, if the measurement was found to be different and larger and disagree, then it would be an indication of new particles or forces outside of the standard model that could explain those big mysteries about our ________.

Now so far, no new particle or force outside of the standard model that could explain those big mysteries about our universe has ever been discovered. But the point to reemphasize is that the rate or the speed by which muons wobble when we place them in a magnetic field is directly defined by all the particles and forces in the universe that it comes into contact with. And so, if we can measure very precisely how fast they wobble, we can then compare that to the theoretical prediction of how fast they should wobble from just the particles and forces of the standard model. And then, if the measurement was found to be different and larger and disagree, then it would be an indication of new particles or forces outside of the standard model that could explain those big mysteries about our universe.
