Abstract

We summarise recent results for the quark loop part of the light-by-light scattering contribution to the muons anomalous magnetic moment. In particular we focus on the impact of a momentum dependent quark and quark-photon vertex. We compare the Dyson-Schwinger description with that of the extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model (ENJL) and find important quantitative differences. In particular the transverse parts of the quark-photon-vertex, which serve as a dynamical extension of simple vector meson dominance models, do not yield the large suppression as found in the ENJL model.
