Answer 1

Anomalous results that can not be reproduced by valid experiment are called flukes. Usually, a fluke means something was wrong with the experiment or interpretation.

Answer 2

Perhaps you are thinking of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle or Schroedinger's Cat in the context of quantum mechanics.

Perhaps you are thinking of irreproducible results. You get an experimental result but you can't do it again, or no one else can do it. It could be an error or uncontrolled variable in your experimental method. It could just be an exceedingly improbable event. After spending billions of dollars in multiple experimental devices, scientists will be lucky if they detect one gravity wave in the next decade.
