Among the $Z$-pole observables, $A_{FB}^{(0,b)}$ and $A_e$ suffer moderately-large standard deviations from the Standard Model predictions. Fine-tuning of the unknown Higgs mass only reduces the deviation of one of them at the expense of…
We update our Standard Model predictions for g-2 of the muon and for the hadronic contributions to the running of the QED coupling, Delta alpha_had^(5)(M_Z^2). Particular emphasis is put on recent changes in the hadronic contributions from…
The muon $g-2$ is a compelling quantity due to the current standing tensions among the experimental average, data-driven theoretical results, and lattice results. Matching the final target accuracy of the experiments at Fermilab and J-PARC…
The $\mu\nu$SSM is a highly predictive alternative model to the MSSM. In particular, the electroweak sector of the model can explain the longstanding discrepancy between the experimental result for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon,…
The hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu=(g_\mu-2)/2$ has to be determined at the per-mille level for the Standard Model prediction to match the expected final uncertainty from the ongoing E989 experiment. This…
We update the constraints on two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs) focusing on the parameter space relevant to explain the present muon $g$$-$$2$ anomaly, $\Delta a_{\mu}$, in four different types of models, type I, II, "lepton specific" (or X)…

We have performed a new evaluation of the hadronic contribution to $a_{\mu}=(g-2)/2$ of the muon with explicit correlations of systematic errors among the experimental data on $\sigma( e^+e^- \to hadrons )$. Our result for the lowest order…
We update our previous work on an analysis of the electroweak data by including new and partly preliminary data available up to the 1996 summer conferences. The new results on the Z partial decay widths into b and c hadrons now offer a…
We present results of calculations of the hadronic vacuum polarisation contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Specifically, we focus on controlling the infrared regime of the vacuum polarisation function. Our results are…
The current measurement of muonic $g - 2$ disagrees with the theoretical calculation by about 3 standard deviations. Hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) and hadronic light by light (HLbL) are the two types of processes that contribute most…
We give an update of our calculation of the light-quark, connected, hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, or muon $g-2$. The update includes preliminary results on a $2 + 1 + 1$ highly-improved…
We present a systematic study of the hadronic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment within several infrared-improved AdS/QCD models. The models are constrained by the pion decay constant and the $\rho$-meson mass and are shown…
