The recent measurement on the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu$ shows a $2.6\sigma$ deviation from the standard model value. We show that it puts an interesting bound on the mass of the second generation leptoquarks. To account for the…
Using electroweak data and an effective Lagrangian approach we obtain stringent bounds on the tau anomalous magnetic moment, $-0.004 \leq a_\tau \leq 0.006$, and on its electric dipole moment, $|d_\tau| \leq 1.1 \times 10^{-17} e$ cm. This…

The anomalous magnetic moment of the tau lepton $a_\tau = (g_\tau -2)/2$ strikingly evades measurement, but is highly sensitive to new physics such as compositeness or supersymmetry. We propose using ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions at…
The $\tau$ lepton anomalous magnetic moment: $a_\tau = \frac{g_{\tau}-2}{2}$ was measured, so far, with a precision of only several percents despite its highly sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model such as compositeness or…
We investigate the leading order correction of anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) to the electron in weak magnetic field and find that the magnetic correction is negative and magnetic field dependent, indicating a magnetic catalysis effect for…
