Introduction
(You can move to next if you are familiar with the term 'muon'.)
OK, you are reading this on your tech device, now imagine zooming it. More and more and more and more and more. So much that you can't even see he pixels, you are in the pixels. now zoom in more and more and more. You will see somethng like the pic, it is called an atom. What is revolving around is called electron. Number of electrons vary from a substance to another substance. Now if you want, you can remove that electron from its orbits around the atom. Now make this electron 200 times bigger, what you get is a 'muon'.

Observation
Ok, so this muon was thrown in a magnetic field, and FYI, any particle like that woobles in a magnetic field, it dances. So its dance factor (g) was calculated and it was 2. ...., it was very accurate. This was theoretical (without the actual experiment). and then, there was an experimental value which was slightly different from the theoretical. This is shocking because we thought we actually know what quantum particless it creates which make it dance. So, it would be equal with the experiment. We thought gtheory=gexp. NO!
Which means there are some things which are needed to be discussed.

Conclusion
There are 3 theories which can help in equalizing the theoretical g with the experimantal g:
- A new particle- leptoquark, which can make the muon dance more or less.
- A new set of particles- called supersymmetrical particles. You put an 's' before everything and you get a supersym. particle. So there may smuon affecting muon.
- A new force- the most exciting one. They think there is a new force which is affecting he muon.WOW
Some people still won't get it, so I am providing you a link. If you want to learn in an easy way.
