The latest measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a^{}_{mu} equiv (g^{}_mu - 2)/2$ at the Fermi Laboratory has found a $4.2,sigma$ discrepancy with the theoretical prediction of the Standard Model (SM). Motivated by this exciting progress, we investigate in the present paper the general one-loop contributions to $a^{}_mu$ within the SM and beyond. First, different from previous works, the analytical formulae of relevant loop functions after integration are now derived and put into compact forms with the help of the Passarino-Veltman functions. Second, given the interactions of muon with new particles running in the loop, we clarify when the one-loop contribution to $a^{}_mu$ could take the correct positive sign as desired. Third, possible divergences in the zero- and infinite-mass limits are examined, and the absence of any divergences in the calculations leads to some consistency conditions for the construction of ultraviolet complete models. Applications of our general formulae to specific models, such as the SM, seesaw models, $Z^prime$ and leptoquark models, are also discussed.

The hadronic light-by-light contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment depends on an integration over three off-shell momenta squared ($Q_i^2$) of the correlator of four electromagnetic currents and the fourth leg at zero momentum. We derive the short-distance expansion of this correlator in the limit where all three $Q_i^2$ are large and in the Euclidean domain in QCD. This is done via a systematic operator product expansion (OPE) in a background field which we construct. The leading order term in the expansion is the massless quark loop. We also compute the non-perturbative part of the next-to-leading contribution, which is suppressed by quark masses, and the chiral limit part of the next-to-next-to leading contributions to the OPE. We build a renormalisation program for the OPE. The numerical role of the higher-order contributions is estimated and found to be small.
We describe a new technique to determine the contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon coming from the hadronic vacuum polarization using lattice QCD. Our method reconstructs the Adler function, using Pad{e} approximants, from its der ivatives at $q^2=0$ obtained simply and accurately from time-moments of the vector current-current correlator at zero spatial momentum. We test the method using strange quark correlators on large-volume gluon field configurations that include the effect of up and down (at physical masses), strange and charm quarks in the sea at multiple values of the lattice spacing and multiple volumes and show that 1% accuracy is achievable. For the charm quark contributions we use our previously determined moments with up, down and strange quarks in the sea on very fine lattices. We find the (connected) contribution to the anomalous moment from the strange quark vacuum polarization to be $a_mu^s = 53.41(59) times 10^{-10}$, and from charm to be $a_mu^c = 14.42(39)times 10^{-10}$. These are in good agreement with flavour-separated results from non-lattice methods, given caveats about the comparison. The extension of our method to the light quark contribution and to that from the quark-line disconnected diagram is straightforward.
The current measurement of muonic $g - 2$ disagrees with the theoretical calculation by about 3 standard deviations. Hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) and hadronic light by light (HLbL) are the two types of processes that contribute most to the theo retical uncertainty. The current value for HLbL is still given by models. I will describe results from a first-principles lattice calculation with a 139 MeV pion in a box of 5.5 fm extent. Our current numerical strategies, including noise reduction techniques, evaluating the HLbL amplitude at zero external momentum transfer, and important remaining challenges, in particular those associated with finite volume effects, will be discussed.
We present the mini-proceedings of the workshops Hadronic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment: strategies for improvements of the accuracy of the theoretical prediction and $(g-2)_{mu}$: Quo vadis?, both held in Mainz from April 1$^{r m rst}$ to 5$^{rm th}$ and from April 7$^{rm th}$ to 10$^{rm th}$, 2014, respectively.
We describe a new technique (published in Phys. Rev. D89 114501) to determine the contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon coming from the hadronic vacuum polarisation using lattice QCD. Our method uses Pade approximants to reconstru ct the Adler function from its derivatives at $q^2=0$. These are obtained simply and accurately from time-moments of the vector current-current correlator at zero spatial momentum. We test the method using strange quark correlators calculated on MILC Collaborations $n_f = 2+1+1$ HISQ ensembles at multiple values of the lattice spacing, multiple volumes and multiple light sea quark masses (including physical pion mass configurations). We find the (connected) contribution to the anomalous moment from the strange quark vacuum polarisation to be $a^s_mu=53.41(59)times 10^{-10}$, and the contribution from charm quarks to be $a^c_mu=14.42(39)times 10^{-10}$ - 1% accuracy is achieved for the strange quark contribution. The extension of our method to the light quark contribution and to that from the quark-line disconnected diagram is straightforward.
