    A 'no-brainer Nobel Prize': Hungarian scientists may have found a fifth force of nature

    Physics centers essentially on four forces that control our known, visible universe, governing everything from the production of heat in the sun to the way your laptop works. They are gravity, electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force, and the strong force.

    ...

    They referred to this unseen fifth force in action as a "protophobic force," meaning that it was as though the particles were "afraid of protons."

    Meanwhile, nuclear physicists around the world set to work looking for errors in the Hungarians' work, and have come up empty-handed over the past few years.

    "Some very well-known nuclear physicists have done that exercise," Feng said.

    The numbers seemed to add up, and no one could find ways their equipment was calibrated incorrectly.

    And Feng said his own team was comparing the Hungarian experiments "with every other experiment that's been done in the history of physics."

    The only way to explain X17 was a hitherto undetected "fifth force."

    There’s got to be a Dragon Ball joke in there somewhere.

    This is the force behind Hungarian gypsy witchcraft.

    Neil Stephenson was right, again --> Erszebet Karpathy.

    from the article

    "X17 could be a particle, which connects our visible world with the dark matter," he said in an email.”

    very interesting indeed.

    Everyone has an angle. Interesting, but has not yet been replicated.

    I think I may have found the 5th force for the Houston Rockets, or should I say the 3rd :)

    The 5th force is likely responsible for meteor storms.
