This White Paper briefly reviews the present status of the muon (g-2) Standard-Model prediction. This value results in a 3 - 4 standard-deviation difference with the experimental result from Brookhaven E821. The present experimental…
The New Muon $(g-2)$ Collaboration at Fermilab has proposed to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_\mu$, a factor of four better than was done in E821 at the Brookhaven AGS, which obtained $a_\mu = [116 592 089 (63)]…
The muon magnetic anomaly may contain contributions from physics beyond the standard model. At the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) a precision experiment aims for a measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly $a_{\mu}$ to 0.35 ppm, where…
The muon (g-2) experiment at BNL has completed four data runs for the positive muon, beginning in 1997 and has just finished its first run for the negative muon. Recently the analysis of a 1.3 ppm result based on the 1999 run was completed…

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…
One of the most promising quantities for the search of signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model is the anomalous magnetic moment $g-2$ of the muon, where a comparison of the experimental result with the Standard Model estimate yields…
It is shown that the 2.6 $\sigma$ discrepancy between the predicted and recently measured value of the anomalous magnetic moment of positive muons could be explained by the existence of a new light gauge boson X with a mass $M_X \leq O(5)…
Theoretical calculations of the hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment utilize experimental data from e+e- annhilation and tau decay. The data provide input to a dispersion relation. I contend that it is not possible to…
In view of the current 3 - 4 $\sigma$ deviation between theoretical and experimental values for the muon's anomalous magnetic moment, we review the ongoing efforts in constraining the hadronic light-by-light contribution to $a_\mu$ by using…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is evaluated in the D-brane realization of the Standard Model. It is pointed out that the massive anomalous U(1) gauge bosons predicted, give extra contributions that are compatible with current…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon has recently been measured to be in conflict with the Standard Model prediction with an excess of 2.6 sigma. Taking this result as a measurement of the supersymmetric contribution, we find that at…
