We study the constraints that electroweak precision data can impose, after the discovery of the Higgs boson by the LHC, on neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet models which comprise one extra $SU(2)\times U(1)$ doublet and a new symmetry,…
We discuss, within the framework of the Standard Model, the calculation of the two-loop electroweak contributions to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon involving triangle fermionic loops of leptons and quarks. Because of the large…

Models with an Axion Like Particle (ALP) can provide an explanation for the discrepancy between experimental measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $(g-2)_\mu$ and the Standard Model prediction. This explanation relies on the…
The new round of experiments, MEG II, COMET/Mu2e, and Mu3e, would soon start to push the $\mu \to e\gamma$, $\mu N \to eN$ conversion, and $\mu \to 3e$ frontier, while Belle II would probe $\tau \to \mu\gamma$ and $\tau \to 3\mu$. In the…

The hydrogen-like muonium atom ($\mu^+e^-$) consists of a positive muon ($\mu^+$) and an electron ($e^-$). Since it was first observed by Hughes et al. in 1960, a series of precision experiments could be carried out testing bound state…
Internal consistency of the most sensitive electroweak measurements within the standard model framework is examined. Confirming an earlier observation on the separation of Z-pole asymmetry measurements into {\em hadronisation- free}and {\em…

This article reviews the muon g-2 experiment, a cornerstone in precision tests of the Standard Model of particle physics. The experiment measures the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon with unprecedented accuracy, seeking potential…
The Mu2e experiment will search for a Standard Model violating rate of neutrinoless conversion of a muon into an electron in the presence of an aluminum nucleus. Observation of this charged lepton flavor violating process would be an…
We review how the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$) and the quest for lepton flavor violation are intimately correlated. Indeed the decay $\mu \to e \gamma$ is induced by the same amplitude for different choices of in- and outgoing…
The persistent discrepancy of about 3.5 standard deviations between the experimental measurement and the Standard Model prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_\mu$, is one of the most promising hints for the possible…
