The recent measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment shows 2.6$\sigma$ deviation of $a_\mu$ from the standard model prediction which can be explained by a chargino-sneutrino loop correction in the supersymmetric models. In…

Hadronic light-by-light scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_\mu$ is one of two hadronic effects limiting the precision of the Standard Model prediction for this precision observable, and hence the new-physics…
The present anomaly in muon anaomalous magnetic moment can be explained by the presence of a muon-philic $X$ boson which could be a scalar particle or a vector particle with mass less than twice the mass of muon. The muon-philic $X$ boson…
The muon magnetic anomaly, $a_{\mu}=(g_{\mu}-2)/2$, plays a special role in the history of the Standard Model (SM). Precise calculations and measurements of this fundamental quantity provide a stringent test of the SM and a window to the…
We develop the formalism to provide an improved estimate for the hadronic light-by-light correction to the muon's anomalous magnetic moment a_{\mu}, by considering single meson contributions beyond the leading pseudo-scalar mesons. We…
The MUonE experiment aims at providing a new independent evaluation of the leading hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. The proposed method is based on the measurement of the running of the QED coupling in the…
The "proton size puzzle" and the "muon anomalous moment problem" are incomplete descriptions of significant discrepancies of Standard Model calculations with experiments. What is particularly new is that the experiments and theory confront…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is one of the most precisely measured quantities in physics. Its experimental value exhibits a $4.2 \, \sigma$ discrepancy $\delta a_\mu=(251 \pm 59) \times 10^{-11}$ with its theoretical value…
The presence of a permanent electric dipole moment in an elementary particle implies Charge-Parity symmetry violation and thus could help explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry observed in our universe. Within the context of the Standard…
We calculate the leading isospin-violating and electromagnetic corrections for the decay tau --> pi^0 pi nu_tau at low energies. The corrections are small but relevant for the inclusion of tau decay data in the determination of hadronic…
A number of predictions were made in von Buddenbrock et al (2016 Eur. Phys. J. C 76, 10, 580) pertaining to the anomalous production of multiple leptons at the Large Hadron Collider. Discrepancies in multi-lepton final states have now…
The electron's spin magnetic moment is ordinarily described as anomalous in comparison to what one would expect from the Dirac equation. But, what exactly should one expect from the Dirac equation? The standard answer would be the Bohr…
We re-examine the bounds on supersymmetric particle masses in light of the new E821 data on the muon anomalous magnetic moment and the revised theoretical calculations of its hadronic contributions. The current experimental excess is either…
