Description
The Muon g−2 Experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory recently published the results of its six-year data-taking campaign, reporting a measurement of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment with unprecedented precision of 0.127 parts per billion, providing one of the most stringent tests of the Standard Model. However, to fully leverage this experimental tour de force in the search for new fundamental physics, a theoretical prediction of comparable accuracy is required.
In this talk, I will survey the current experimental and theoretical landscape of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment before presenting first-principles calculations of the leading hadronic contributions, the largest source of uncertainty in the Standard Model prediction. When combined with all other Standard Model contributions, this calculation yields a prediction that agrees with experiment within half a standard deviation, confirming the Standard Model to eleven significant digits and sharpening constraints on physics beyond it.
