Hadronic light-by-light scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon a_\muaμ is one of two hadronic effects limiting the precision of the Standard Model prediction for this precision observable, and hence the new-physics discovery potential of direct experimental determinations of a_\muaμ. In this contribution, I report on recent progress in the calculation of this effect achieved both via dispersive and lattice QCD methods.

Abstract The disagreement between the standard model prediction and the experimental measurement of muon anomalous magnetic moment can be alleviated by invoking an additional particle which is either a vector boson (X1) or a scalar (X0). This new particle, with the mass mX ≲ 2mμ, can be searched for in the decay J/ψ → μ−μ+X, where X is missing. Our numerical study shows that the search is quite feasible at the BESIII experiment in the parameter space allowed by muon g − 2 measurements.

This paper reviews and updates the Standard Model prediction of the τ lepton g-2. Updated QED and electroweak contributions are presented, together with new values of the leading-order hadronic term, based on the recent low energy e+ e- data from BaBar, CMD-2, KLOE and SND, and hadronic light-by-light contribution. The total prediction is confronted to the available experimental bounds on the τ lepton anomaly, and prospects for its future measurements are briefly discussed.

AbstractThe $$\mu \nu \mathrm {SSM}$$ μ ν 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, $$(g-2)_\mu $$ ( g - 2 ) μ , and its Standard Model prediction, while being in agreement with all other theoretical and experimental constraints. The recently published MUON G-2 result is within $${0.8}\,\sigma $$ 0.8 σ in agreement with the older BNL result on $$(g-2)_\mu $$ ( g - 2 ) μ . The combined result was announced as $$a_\mu ^{\mathrm{exp}} = (11 659 {206.1}\pm {4.1}) \times 10^{-10}$$ a μ exp = ( 11659 206.1 ± 4.1 ) × 10 - 10 , yielding a new deviation from the Standard Model prediction of $$\Delta a_\mu = ({25.1}\pm {5.9}) \times 10^{-10}$$ Δ a μ = ( 25.1 ± 5.9 ) × 10 - 10 , corresponding to $${4.2}\,\sigma $$ 4.2 σ . Using this improved bound we update the analysis in the $$\mu \nu \mathrm {SSM}$$ μ ν SSM as presented in Kpatcha et al. (Eur Phys J C 81(2):154. arXiv:1912.04163 [hep-ph], 2021) and set new limits on the allowed parameters space of the electroweak sector of the model. We conclude that significant regions of the model can explain the new $$(g-2)_\mu $$ ( g - 2 ) μ data.

Abstract Applying an operator product expansion approach we update the Standard Model prediction of the Bc lifetime from over 20 years ago. The non-perturbative velocity expansion is carried out up to third order in the relative velocity of the heavy quarks. The scheme dependence is studied using three different mass schemes for the $$ \overline{b} $$ b ¯ and c quarks, resulting in three different values consistent with each other and with experiment. Special focus has been laid on renormalon cancellation in the computation. Uncertainties resulting from scale dependence, neglecting the strange quark mass, non-perturbative matrix elements and parametric uncertainties are discussed in detail. The resulting uncertainties are still rather large compared to the experimental ones, and therefore do not allow for clear-cut conclusions concerning New Physics effects in the Bc decay.

Lepton Flavour

While the LHC has not directly observed any new particle so far, experimental results from LHCb, BELLE and BABAR point towards the violation of lepton flavour universality in b ⟶ sℓ+ and b ⟶ c-ℓν. In this context, also the discrepancy in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon can be interpreted as a sign of lepton flavour universality violation. Here we discuss how these hints for new physics can also be explained by introducing leptoquarks as an extension of the Standard Model. Indeed, leptoquarks are good candidates to explain the anomaly in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon because of an mg/mμ enhanced contribution giving correlated effects in Z boson decays which is particularly interesting in the light of future precision experiments.

Current Bound

New physics in the form of scalar/pseudoscalar operators cannot lower the semileptonic branching ratio Br (B → K μ+μ-) below its standard model value. In addition, we show that the upper bound on the leptonic branching ratio Br (Bs → μ+μ-) sets a strong constraint on the maximum value of Br (B → K μ+μ-) in models with multiple Higgs doublets: with the current bound, Br (B → K μ+μ-) cannot exceed the standard model prediction by more than 2.5%. The conclusions hold true even if the new physics couplings are complex. However, these constraints can be used to restrict new physics couplings only if the theoretical and experimental errors in Br (B → K μ+μ-) are reduced to a few per cent. The constraints become relaxed in a general class of models with scalar/pesudoscalar operators.

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon can be both measured and computed to a very high precision, making it a powerful probe to test the Standard Model and search for new physics. The previous measurement by the Brookhaven E821 experiment found a discrepancy from the SM predicted value of about three standard deviations. The Muon g–2 experiment at Fermilab will improve the precision to 140 parts per billion compared to 540 parts per billion of E821 by increasing statistics and using upgraded apparatus. The first run of data taking has been accomplished in Fermilab, where the same level of statistics as E821 has already been attained. This paper, summarizes the current experimental status and briefly describes the data quality of the first run. It compares the statistics of this run with E821 and discusses the future outlook.

Abstract We present a supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model in which the new physics contributions to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon can be more than an order of magnitude larger than in the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The extended electroweak symmetry breaking sector of the model can consistently accommodate Higgs bosons and Higgsinos with O(1) couplings to muons. We find that sleptons with masses in the multi-TeV range can comfortably explain the recently confirmed discrepancy in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. We discuss additional phenomenological aspects of the model, including its effects on tau flavor changing decays.
