Thanks to a Penn State-led team performing one of the most precise calculations ever in particle physics, it has been shown that the Standard Model — the theory describing the known building blocks of matter — still holds.

This recent study, led by Zoltan Fodor, distinguished professor of physics, revealed a tiny discrepancy that has loomed for decades in particle physics was a fluke in calculation, not nature.
