The ultra-careful quest to find the shape of the electron’s charge

Physicists use extreme precision tests to search for flaws in the Standard Model. A new study used a strong electric field in the molecule hafnium fluoride to measure the electric dipole moment of its valence electrons, and concluded by finding no evidence of 'new physics'. This result precludes the existence…
