The Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment and the Standard Model
نویسنده
چکیده
The muon anomalous magnetic moment measurement, when compared with theory, can be used to test many extensions to the standard model. The most recent measurement made by the Brookhaven E821 Collaboration reduces the uncertainty on the world average of aμ to 0.7 ppm, comparable in precision to theory. This paper describes the experiment and the current theoretical efforts to establish a correct standard model reference value for the muon anomaly.

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon in the D-brane realization of the Standard Model
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 experimental data. ∗Unité mixte du CNRS and de l’Ecole Polytechnique, UMR 7644
متن کاملMinimal Supersymmetric Standard Model Extended by One Additional Higgs Singlet and Its Influence on the Anomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon*
We present the results of the influence of the minimal supersymmetric standard model extended by an additional Higgs singlet N, with vacuum expectation value vN , on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. This gives different mass matrices for the charginos and neutralinos, which are taken into account within the relevant penguin diagrams leading to a contribution ∆aμ to the anomalous magne...
متن کاملanomalous magnetic moment in string inspired extended family models
We propose a standard model minimal extension with two lepton weak SU (2) doublets and a scalar singlet to explain the deviation of the measured anomalous magnetic moment of the muon from the standard model expectation.
متن کاملThe Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment: Standard Model Theory and Beyond
QED, Hadronic, and Electroweak Standard Model contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, aμ ≡ (gμ − 2)/2, are reviewed. Theoretical uncertainties in the prediction a μ = 116 591 597(67)× 10 are scrutinized. Effects due to “New Physics” are described. Implications of the current experiment vs. theory constraint a μ −aSM μ = 453(465)×10−11 and anticipated near term error reduction to ±1...
متن کاملEffective Lagrangian approach to precision measurements: Anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.
We investigate the use of effective Lagrangians to describe the effects on highprecision observables of physics beyond the Standard Model. Using the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon as an example, we detail the use of effective vertices in loop calculations. We then provide estimates of the sensitivity of new experiments measuring the muon’s g− 2 to the scale of physics underlying the Stan...
