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…
We present a new, completely revised calculation of the muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_\mu=(g_{\mu}-2)/2$, comparing it with the more recent experimental determination of this quantity; this furnishes an important test of theories of…

Chameleon and symmetron theories serve as archetypal models for how light scalar fields can couple to matter with gravitational strength or greater, yet evade the stringent constraints from classical tests of gravity on Earth and in the…
The Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab seeks to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly, $a_\mu =(g-2)/2$, with a final target precision of 0.14 parts-per-million (ppm). The experiment's initial result, published in 2021 using Run 1 data from…
A novel quantum time dilation effect is shown to arise when a clock moves in a quantum superposition of two relativistic velocities. This effect is argued to be measurable using existing atomic interferometry techniques, potentially…
Recently it is found that Weyl anomaly leads to new anomalous currents in an external electromagnetic field in the curved spacetime. For simplicity, the initial works mainly focus on weak gravitational fields and the anomalous current is…
The possibility of detecting the gravitomagnetic clock effect using artificial Earth satellites provides the incentive to develop a more intuitive approach to its derivation. We first consider two test electric charges moving on the same…
We discuss the definitions of standard clocks in theories of gravitation. These definitions are motivated by the invariance of actions under different gauge symmetries. We contrast the definition of a standard Weyl clock with that of a…
We critically discuss the measure of very short time intervals. By means of a Gedankenexperiment, we describe an ideal clock based on the occurrence of completely random events. Many previous thought experiments have suggested fundamental…
We analyse the constraints obtained from new atomic clock data on the possible time variation of the fine structure `constant' and the electron-proton mass ratio and show how they are strengthened when the seasonal variation of Sun's…
In light of the upcoming measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment (g-2), we revisit the corrections to g-2 in the context of the $SU(4)_L \times U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry. We investigate three models based on this gauge symmetry and…
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…
Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_{\mu}=(g_{\mu}-2)/2$, is one of the most precisely measured quantities in particle physics and it provides a stringent test of the Standard Model. The planned improvements of the experimental…

We study the muon anomalous magnetic moment $(g-2)_{\mu}$ in the context of the reduced minimal 3-3-1 model recently proposed in the literature. In particular, its spectrum contains a doubly charged scalar ($H^{\pm \pm}$) and gauge boson…
We examine the prospects for discovering new physics through muon dipole moments. The current deviation in $g_{\mu}-2$ may be due entirely to the muon's {\em electric} dipole moment. We note that the precession frequency in the proposed BNL…
