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…

While the muon $g-2$ anomaly can be successfully explained by some new physics models, most of them are severely constrained by the $\mu \to e \gamma$ bound. This tension is more transparent from the effective field theory perspective, in…
