Photon Discovery Challenges Standard Model of Physics

Fast Summary

• Physicists are exploring a radical idea that photons might have more quantum states than previously known, which could fundamentally alter the standard model of particle physics.
• Photons, particles of light, typically exhibit spin in two possible states, linked to polarized light directions. This experiment seeks to determine if they possess additional spin states or properties.
• Researchers have identified methods to test this hypothesis using experiments with hydrogen atoms.
• This discovery could revolutionize our understanding of elementary particles and quantum mechanics.
