Abstract

We review the tau data-driven computation of Euclidean windows for the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment (a_mu), which agree with the lattice results, making the difference of the e+ee^+e^- data-driven methods with them more intriguing. This conundrum needs to be solved by next year, when the final FNAL a_mu measurement will be published, in order to extract firm conclusions on possible new physics effects.
