A precision measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment (g-2) of the muon has been made by the E821 collaboration at BNL. This paper is a written version of a ``hot topics'' talk at ICAP2002 (Cambridge, MA). The principles of the…
The long-standing $4.2 \, \sigma$ muon $g-2$ anomaly may be the result of a new particle species which could also couple to dark matter and mediate its annihilations in the early universe. In models where both muons and dark matter carry…
We have witnessed a persistent puzzling anomaly in the muon magnetic moment that cannot be accounted for in the Standard Model even considering the large hadronic uncertainties. A new measurement is forthcoming, and it might give rise to a…
We propose a new model of 5D $SU(3)\otimes U(1)_X$ gauge-Higgs unification with a successful electroweak symmetry breaking and a realistic Higgs boson mass. In our model, the representations of the fermions are very simple, the ${\bf 3},…
We propose an alternative unification scenario where the Higgs self-coupling (lambda) is unified with the electroweak SU(2)L x U(1)Y interactions at an intermediate scale MGH, lower than the GUT scale. In this model the SM remains valid up…
We present a minimal viable Gauge-Higgs Grand Unification scenario in warped space based on a $SU(6)$ bulk symmetry - unifying the gauge symmetries of the SM and their breaking sector. We show how the issue of light exotic new states is…
The muon g-2 experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory measures the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_\mu$, very precisely. This measurement tests the Standard Model. The analysis for the data collected in 2000 (a $\mu^+$ run) is…
We investigate simplified models of new physics that can accommodate the measured value of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the relic density of dark matter. We define a set of renormalizable, SU(2)$\times$U(1) invariant…
The limits on lepton radii and contact interaction scales are used to derive limits on the deviations of lepton anomalous magnetic dipole moments (g-2)/2 from the Standard Model predictions. In the case of quadratic dependence of the…
We compute the correction to the muon magnetic moment in theories where the Higgs is a pseudo-Goldstone boson and leptons are partially composite. Using a general effective lagrangian we show that in some regions of parameters a sizable new…
The long-standing difference between the experimental measurement and the standard-model prediction for the muon's anomalous magnetic moment, $a_{\mu} = (g_{\mu}-2)/2$, may be explained by the presence of new weakly interacting particles…
We study the low energy implications of a trinification model based on the gauge symmetry $G= SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$, without imposing gauge coupling unification. A minimal model requires two Higgs multiplets that reside in…
The new g-2 experiment at Fermilab aims to measure the muon anomalous magnetic moment by a fourfold improvement in precision compared to the BNL experiment. Achieving this goal requires the delivery of highly polarized 3.094 GeV/c muons…
We consider general supersymmetric models with: a) arbitrary matter content; and, b) gauge coupling Unification near the String scale $\sim 10^{17}$ GeV, and derive the absolute upper limit on the mass of the lightest Higgs boson. For a…
We investigate the potential of a muon collider for testing the presence of anomalous Higgs boson couplings. We consider the case of a light (less than $160 GeV$) Higgs boson and study the effects on the Higgs branching ratios and total…
We study both the branching ratio for $b \to s \gamma$ decay and the muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_{\mu} \equiv (g-2)_{\mu} /2$, in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. Combining new…
The muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_\mu=\frac{g-2}{2}$, is a low-energy observable which can be both measured and computed to high precision, making it a sensitive test of the Standard Model and a probe for new physics. This anomaly was…
Motivated by the long-standing discrepancy between the Standard Model prediction and the experimental measurement of the muon magnetic dipole moment, we have recently proposed to interpret this muon $g-2$ anomaly in terms of the loop effect…
We study a five dimensional SU(3) nonsupersymmetric gauge theory compactified on $M^4\times S^1/Z_2$ and discuss the gauge hierarchy in the scenario of the gauge-Higgs unification. Making use of calculability of the Higgs potential and a…
We consider the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_\mu$, which shows a significant deviation from the Standard Model expectation given the recent measurements at Fermilab and BNL. We focus on Standard Model Effective Field Theory…
