We propose a SUSY scenario to explain the current electron and muon $g-2$ discrepancies without introducing lepton flavor mixings. Threshold corrections to the Yukawa couplings can enhance the electron $g-2$ and flip the sign of the SUSY contributions. The mechanism predicts a flavor-dependent slepton mass spectrum. We show that it is compatible with the Higgs mediation scenario.
The stringent experimental bound on $mu rightarrow e gamma$ is compatible with a simultaneous and sizable new physics contribution to the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments $(g-2)_ell$ ($ell=e,,mu$), only if we assume a non-trivial flavor structure of the dipole operator coefficients. We propose a mechanism in which the realization of the $(g-2)_ell$ correction is manifestly related to the mass generation through a flavor symmetry. A radiative flavon correction to the fermion mass gives a contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment. In this framework, we introduce a chiral enhancement from a non-trivial $mathcal{O}(1)$ quartic coupling of the scalar potential. We show that the muon and electron anomalies can be simultaneously explained in a vast region of the parameter space with predicted vector-like mediators of masses as large as $M_chiin [0.6,2.5]$~TeV.
A non-universal $U(1)_{X}$ extension to the Standard Model composed of two scalar doublets and two scalar singlets together with three additional quark singlets and two lepton singlets and three generations of right-handed and Majorana neutrinos is made to explain lepton mass hierarchy, neutrino masses via inverse seesaw mechanism and muon anomalous magnetic moment in an anomaly free framework. In the present model, exotic and Standard Model particles acquire mass thanks to vacuum expectation values at different scales, yet the electron and the lightest neutrino are tree level massless but massive at one-loop level. By considering a numerical exploration and under the constraint of the Higgs mass, neutrino mass differences and PMNS matrix, it is found that only contributions due to exotic neutrinos interacting with charged scalars are relevant to muon $g-2$, though they are negative. Thus, the SUSY extension is considered and it is found that muon $g-2$ can be explained by allowing $U(1)_{X}$ vacuum expectation values to lie in the TeV scale thanks to SUSY soft-breaking interactions for at least $sim 10^{5}$ GeV masses. Thus, the contribution due to exotic neutrinos interacting with $W$ gauge bosons is positive and no longer negligible which added to all other contributions might explain the anomaly.
A systematic investigation on muon anomalous magnetic moment and related lepton flavor-violating process such as $mto eg$, $tto eg$ and $tto mg$ is made at two loop level in the models with flavor-changing scalar interactions. The two loop diagrams with double scalar exchanges are studied and their contributions are found to be compatible with the ones from Barr-Zee diagram. By comparing with the latest data, the allowed ranges for the relevant Yukawa couplings $Y_{ij}$ in lepton sector are obtained. The results show a hierarchical structure of $Y_{m e, t e} ll Y_{m t} simeq Y_{mm}$ in the physical basis if $Delta a_{mu}$ is found to be $>50times 10^{-11}$. It deviates from the widely used ansatz in which the off diagonal elements are proportional to the square root of the products of related fermion masses. An alternative Yukawa coupling matrix in the lepton sector is suggested to understand the current data. With such a reasonable Yukawa coupling ansatz, the decay rate of $tto mg$ is found to be near the current experiment upper bound.
We discuss gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking models which explain the observed muon anomalous magnetic moment and the Higgs boson mass simultaneously. The successful explanation requires the messenger sector which violates the relation motivated by the grand unification theory (GUT). The naive violation of the GUT relation, however, ends up with the CP problem. We propose a model in which the phases of the gaugino masses are aligned despite the violation of the GUT relation. We also consider a model which generates the $mu$-term and the additional Higgs soft masses squared without causing CP violation. As a result, we find a successful model which explains the muon anomalous magnetic moment and the Higgs boson mass. The model is also free from the CP, flavor-changing neutral current and the lepton flavor violation problems caused by the subdominant gravity mediation effects.
The recent confirmation of the muon $g-2$ anomaly by the Fermilab g-2 experiment may harbinger a new era in $mu$ and $tau$ physics. As is known, the effect can arise from one-loop exchange of sub-TeV exotic scalar and pseudoscalars, namely $H$ and $A$, that have flavor changing neutral couplings $rho_{taumu}$ and $rho_{mutau}$ at $sim 20$ times the usual tau Weinberg coupling, $lambda_tau$. A similar diagram induces $mu to egamma$, where $rho_{etau}= rho_{tau e} = {cal O}(lambda_e)$ brings the rate right into the sensitivity of the MEG II experiment, and the $mu egamma$ dipole can be probed further by $mu to 3e$ and $mu N to eN$. With its promised sensitivity range and ability to use different nuclei, the $mu N to e N$ conversion experiments can not only make discovery, but access the extra diagonal quark Weinberg couplings $rho_{qq}$. For the $tau$ lepton, $tau to mugamma$ would probe $rho_{tautau}$ down to $lambda_tau$ or lower, while $tau to 3mu$ would probe $rho_{mumu}$ to ${cal O}(lambda_{mu})$.
