A Spanish and French team has now announced results that could be the first indication of a New Physics reality.

They involve data from the LHCb, one of the giant detectors that form part of the LHC on the French-Swiss border.

Scientists were measuring the decay of a fundamental particle called the B meson. They revealed deviations from what was predicted by the Standard Model that show a coherent pattern, and are consistent with New Physics.

Interesting but rather frustrating if it fails to narrow down the number of competing models that might fit the data.

The ‘New Physics’ doesn’t seem to be any particular thing. It’s not clear if it deserves to be elevated to the status of a proper noun.
