Explore the exciting possibility of a new force of nature in this 44-minute talk featuring particle physicists Harry Cliff, Paula Alvarez Cartelle, and Ben Allanach. Delve into the unexpected discrepancy discovered by the LHCb experiment at CERN, where fewer muons than electrons were produced in B meson decays, challenging the Standard Model of particle physics. Learn about the decade-long data analysis, the implications of this finding, and the potential for groundbreaking discoveries in fundamental physics. Gain insights from experts working on the Large Hadron Collider as they discuss the significance of rare particle decays and their quest to unravel the mysteries of the universe.
