Sensitivity to new physics: a_e vs. a_mu

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-05-13 v1 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

At present it is generally believed that ``new physics'' effects contribute to leptonic anomalous magnetic moment, a_l, via quantum loops only and they are proportional to the squared lepton mass, (m_l)^2. An alternative mechanism for a contribution by new physics is proposed. It occurs at the tree level and exhibits a linear rather than quadratic dependence on m_l. This leads to a much larger sensitivity of a_e to the new physics than was expected so far.
