Description
The muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon $𝑔−2$) is among the most precisely measured quantities in particle physics. The latest measurement is discrepant from the predictions of the Standard Model – the difference between the experimental and theoretical values is in the range of three to four standard deviations. One possible explanation for this is the interaction of the muon with particles from beyond the Standard Model. It is shown that the discrepancy in the muon $𝑔−2$ can be explained by mixing of the muon with an extra heavy lepton in the mass range 100 GeV – 1000 GeV, along with the coupling of the muon to a scalar boson 𝑆 with mass 150 GeV introduced through the Madala hypothesis.
