Talk muon g-2

Speaker

Dominik Stoeckinger (TU Dresden)

Description

The magnetic moment of the muon $g-2$ is sensitive to all
interactions of the Standard Model and to a variety
of hypothetical new physics scenarios. Future measurements
will lead to important constraints on new physics, and they
might even establish the existence of new physics contributions
to g-2. The talk will describe the theoretical calculations of
g-2 both in the SM and beyond the SM. Improvements
in the SM prediction for g-2 have already significantly sharpened
the current deviation from the measured value. In selected
new physics models similarly accurate predictions are available.
The talk will also give a phenomenological overview of the range
and model dependence of new physics contributions to $g-2$.
