*In the February 11, 2025 issue of the journal physical review letters there is a report that the nucleus of the isotopes of the element Ytterbium are deformed in a way that the standard model of particle physics cannot explain and might be evidence for the existence of a new Boson, it might even be with Dark Matter is. This anomaly had been reported before about five years ago but back then the statistical significance was only 3 sigma and you need 5 to declare a discovery, in this new experiment done with vastly increased precision they got an incredible 23 sigma. If the experimenters made a systematic error it must've been a huge blunder, you'd think if it was an error somebody would've found something that big by now, but nobody has. Could it really be true? *
