Description

The longstanding discrepancy between the measured and the predicted values of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_\mu$ = (g-2)/2, is one of the most intriguing potential hints of new physics in particle physics. After a brief introduction, the status of the theoretical prediction of g-2 will be presented, with some focus on the contributions yielding the dominant uncertainties. The results presented here are based mainly on the White Paper (arXiv:2006.04822) of the Muon g-2 Theory Initiative.
