A neglected force produced by neutrinos and other particles helps atomic physics measurements align with predictions of the standard model.

A major obstacle in calculating the muon’s behavior is the strong force, the most powerful of the four fundamental forces, along with gravity, electromagnetism, and the weak force. It binds quarks ...
