The anomalous magnetic moment of muon, $g-2$, is a very precisely measured quantity. However, the current measurement disagrees with standard model by about 3 standard deviations. Hadronic vacuum polarization and hadronic light by light are…
We revisit the isospin-breaking and electromagnetic corrections to the decay $\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^0\nu_\tau$, which allow its use as input in the two-pion contribution to the (leading order) hadronic vacuum polarization part of the muon…
We analyze the electromagnetic current correlator at an arbitrary photon invariant mass $q^2$ by exploiting its associated dispersion relation. The dispersion relation is turned into an inverse problem, via which the involved vacuum…

A model for verifying a consistency of the next-to-leading order hadronic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment with those of the leading order is proposed. A part of the next-to-leading order hadronic contributions related to…
The past five years have brought significant new results on the muon magnetic anomaly, $a_\mu = (g_\mu - 2)/2$, and on the hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) contribution dominating the uncertainty $\Delta a_\mu$. Serious tension has…
Using recently published, high-precision pi+pi- cross section data by the BABAR experiment from the analysis of e+e- events with high-energy photon radiation in the initial state, we reevaluate the lowest order hadronic contribution…

We evaluate the hadronic contribution to the $g-2$ of the muon by deriving the low-energy limit of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and computing in this way the hadronic vacuum polarization. The low-energy limit is a non-local…
