In the Scientific American article also currently linked on the front page a scientist & professor* at an Italian university is quoted as saying something along the lines of “this is probably an error in the theoretical calculation”. Would this be what the professor was referring to? Edit: I’m not entirely sure whether they’re a professor, but here’s the exact quote > “My feeling is that there’s nothing new under the sun,” says Tommaso Dorigo, an experimental physicist at the University of Padua in Italy, who was also not involved with the new study. “I think that this is still more likely to be a theoretical miscalculation.... But it is certainly the most important thing that we have to look into presently.”
