The Fermilab Muon $g-2$ collaboration recently announced the first result of measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$), which confirmed the previous result at the Brookhaven National Laboratory and thus the discrepancy with its Standard Model prediction. We revisit low-scale supersymmetric models that are naturally capable to solve the muon $g-2$ anomaly, focusing on two distinct scenarios: chargino-contribution dominated and pure-bino-contribution dominated scenarios. It is shown that the slepton pair-production searches have excluded broad parameter spaces for both two scenarios, but they are not closed yet. For the chargino-dominated scenario, the models with $m_{tilde{mu}_{rm L}}gtrsim m_{tilde{chi}^{pm}_1}$ are still widely allowed. For the bino-dominated scenario, we find that, although slightly non-trivial, the region with low $tan beta$ with heavy higgsinos is preferred. In the case of universal slepton masses, the low mass regions with $m_{tilde{mu}}lesssim 230$ GeV can explain the $g-2$ anomaly while satisfying the LHC constraints. Furthermore, we checked that the stau-bino coannihilation works properly to realize the bino thermal relic dark matter. We also investigate heavy staus case for the bino-dominated scenario, where the parameter region that can explain the muon $g-2$ anomaly is stretched to $m_{tilde{mu}}lesssim 1.3$ TeV.
The evaluation of the hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly $a_mu$ is revisited, taking advantage of new experimental data on $e^+e^-$ annihilation into hadrons: SND and CMD-2 for the $pi^+pi^-$ channel, and babar for multihadron final states. Discrepancies are observed between KLOE and CMD-2/SND data, preventing one from averaging all the $e^+e^-$ results. The long-standing disagreement between spectral functions obtained from $tau$ decays and $e^+e^-$ annihilation is still present, and not accounted by isospin-breaking corrections, for which new estimates have been presented. The updated Standard Model value for $a_mu$ based on $e^+e^-$ annihilation data is now reaching a precision better than experiment, and it disagrees with the direct measurement from BNL at the 3.3$sigma$ level, while the $tau$-based estimate is in much better agreement. The $tau$/$e^+e^-$ discrepancy, best revealed when comparing the measured branching fraction for $tau^- to pi^- pi^0 u_tau$ to its prediction from the isospin-breaking-corrected $e^+e^-$ spectral function, remains a serious problem to be understood.
In this paper, we study the extended Standard Model (SM) with an extra Higgs doublet and right-handed neutrinos. If the symmetry to distinguish the two Higgs doublets is not assigned, flavor changing neutral currents (FCNCs) involving the scalars are predicted even at the tree level. We investigate the constraints on the FCNCs at the one-loop level, and especially study the semileptonic $B$ meson decays, e.g. $B to D^{(*)} tau u$ and $B to K^{(*)} ll$ processes, where the SM predictions are more than $2 sigma$ away from the experimental results. We also consider the flavor-violating couplings involving right-handed neutrinos and discuss if the parameters to explain the excesses of the semileptonic $B$ decays can resolve the discrepancy in the the anomalous muon magnetic moment. Based on the analysis, we propose the smoking-gun signals of our model at the LHC.
The Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermilab will measure the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon to a precision of 140 parts per billion, which is a factor of four improvement over the previous E821 measurement at Brookhaven. The experiment will also extend the search for the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the muon by approximately two orders of magnitude, with a sensitivity down to $10^{-21}$ e.cm. Both of these measurements are made by combining a precise measurement of the 1.45T storage ring magnetic field with an analysis of the modulation of the decay rate of higher-energy positrons (from anti-muons), recorded by 24 calorimeters and 3 straw tracking detectors. The recent progress in the alignment of the electrostatic quadrapole plates and the trolley rails inside the vacuum chambers, and in establishing the uniform storage ring magnetic field will be described.

The current status of the experiment as well as results from the initial beam delivery and commissioning run in the summer of 2017 will be discussed.
