The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon has been measured to 0.5 ppm in a series of precision experiments at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The individual results for each sign: a(mu+)= 11 659 204(7)(5) E-10 and a(mu-) =…
We overview the dark parity violation, which means the parity violation induced by a dark gauge boson of very small mass and coupling. When a dark gauge boson has an axial coupling, as in dark Z model, it can change the effective Weinberg…

High-energy particle physics experiments allow for the possible existence of a new light, very weakly coupled, neutral gauge boson (the U boson). This one permits for light (spin-1/2 or spin-0) particles to be acceptable Dark Matter…

General consequences of mass mixing between the ordinary Z boson and a relatively light Z_d boson, the "dark" Z, arising from a U(1)_d gauge symmetry, associated with a hidden sector such as dark matter, are examined. New effects beyond…
A summary is given of the present status of the theory and experiment of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. A difference between predicted and measured values is an indication of physics beyond the Standard Model. A new experimental…
The standard model (SM) of particle physics is spectacularly successful, yet the measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $(g-2)_\mu$ deviates from SM calculations by 3.6$\sigma$. Several theoretical models attribute this to the…
We outline the phenomenology of the "dark" $Z$, denoted by $Z_d$, which is a generalization of the "dark" photon hypothesis. Whereas the dark photon interacts with the Standard Model through kinetic mixing, $Z_d$ is assumed also to have…
