Universe’s Missing Piece #physics #science #poetry #boson #poem

Simulated Data model from the Large Hadron Collider

In all of creation,

In all the gains and losses,

There only are four

Universal

forces.

That’s the Standard Model

Which for years has served so well

Predicting interactions

On the cosmic

carousel.

Yet something has been missing,

Something that evades,

Dark matter and dark energy

Beyond the model

strayed.

Oddly interacting

Are dark light’s weak protons

That could be an anomaly

Or protophobic

bosons.

The ideas are exciting,

But confirmation’s key

Before our minds can grasp

What makes up

reality.

Thanks to csmonitor.com/Science and a new study published in Physical Review Letters that might indicate a fifth fundamental force exists.
