Description

The current theoretical prediction of the anomalous magnetic moment of
the muon (aμ) in the Standard Model reveals ~5σ discrepancy when
compared to experimental results. The primary source of uncertainty in
the muon anomaly lies in the leading hadronic contribution to the
theoretical prediction of aμ and is expected to be the main limitation
in any potential discovery. The MUonE experiment proposes a novel
approach to precisely evaluate this hadronic contribution, aiming to
increase the significance of the observed discrepancy. The experimental
method relies on precisely measuring the of hadronic contribution to aμ
in the space-like momentum region through the μe → μe elastic scattering
process.
