The electromagnetic coupling $alpha$ and the electroweak mixing angle $theta_{mathrm{W}}$ are parameters of the Standard Model (SM) that enter precision SM tests and play a fundamental r^ole in beyond SM physics searches. Their values are energy dependent, and non-perturbative hadronic contributions are the main source of uncertainty to the theoretical knowledge of the running with energy. We present a lattice study of the leading hadronic contribution to the running of $alpha$ and $sin^2theta_{mathrm{W}}$. The former is related to the hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) function of electromagnetic currents, and the latter to the HVP mixing of the electromagnetic current with the vector part of the weak neutral currents. We use the time-momentum representation (TMR) method to compute the HVP on the lattice, estimating both connected and disconnected contributions on $N_{mathrm{f}}=2+1$ non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermions ensembles from the Coordinated Lattice Simulations (CLS) initiative. The use of different lattice spacings and quark masses allows us to reliably extrapolate the results to the physical point.

As present and future experiments, on both the energy and precision frontiers, look to identify new physics beyond the Standard Model, we require more precise determinations of fundamental quantities, like the QED and electroweak couplings at various
momenta. These can be obtained either entirely from experimental measurements, or from one such measurement at a particular virtuality combined with the couplings virtuality dependence computed within the SM. Thus, a precise, entirely theoretical determination of the running couplings is highly desirable, even more since the preliminary results of the E989 experiment in Fermilab were published. We give results for the hadronic contribution to the QED running coupling $alpha(Q^2)$ and weak mixing angle $sin^2theta_W(Q^2)$ in the space-like energy region $(0, 7]~text{GeV}^2$ with a total relative uncertainty of $2%$ at energies $Q^2 ll 1~text{GeV}^2$, and $1%$ at $Q^2 > 1~text{GeV}^2$.
Mixing in the $Sigma^0$-$Lambda^0$ system is a direct consequence of broken isospin symmetry and is a measure of both isospin-symmetry breaking as well as general SU(3)-flavour symmetry breaking. In this work we present a new scheme for calculating t
he extent of $Sigma^0$-$Lambda^0$ mixing using simulations in lattice QCD+QED and perform several extrapolations that compare well with various past determinations. Our scheme allows us to easily contrast the QCD-only mixing case with the full QCD+QED mixing.
A method to determine the running of alpha from a measurement of small-angle Bhabha scattering is proposed and worked out. The method is suited to high statistics experiments at e+e- colliders, which are equipped with luminometers in the appropriate
angular region. A new simulation code predicting small-angle Bhabha scattering is also presented
We present a first-principles lattice QCD+QED calculation at physical pion mass of the leading-order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. The total contribution of up, down, strange, and charm quarks includ
ing QED and strong isospin breaking effects is found to be $a_mu^{rm HVP~LO}=715.4(16.3)(9.2) times 10^{-10}$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. By supplementing lattice data for very short and long distances with experimental R-ratio data using the compilation of Ref. [1], we significantly improve the precision of our calculation and find $a_mu^{rm HVP~LO} = 692.5(1.4)(0.5)(0.7)(2.1) times 10^{-10}$ with lattice statistical, lattice systematic, R-ratio statistical, and R-ratio systematic errors given separately. This is the currently most precise determination of the leading-order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. In addition, we present the first lattice calculation of the light-quark QED correction at physical pion mass.
In order to reduce the current hadronic uncertainties in the theory prediction for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, lattice calculations need to reach sub-percent accuracy on the hadronic-vacuum-polarization contribution. This requires the
inclusion of $mathcal{O}(alpha)$ electromagnetic corrections. The inclusion of electromagnetic interactions in lattice simulations is known to generate potentially large finite-size effects suppressed only by powers of the inverse spatial extent. In this paper we derive an analytic expression for the $mathrm{QED}_{mathrm{L}}$ finite-volume corrections to the two-pion contribution to the hadronic vacuum polarization at next-to-leading order in the electromagnetic coupling in scalar QED. The leading term is found to be of order $1/L^{3}$ where $L$ is the spatial extent. A $1/L^{2}$ term is absent since the current is neutral and a photon far away thus sees no charge and we show that this result is universal. Our analytical results agree with results from the numerical evaluation of loop integrals as well as simulations of lattice scalar $U(1)$ gauge theory with stochastically generated photon fields. In the latter case the agreement is up to exponentially suppressed finite-volume effects. For completeness we also calculate the hadronic vacuum polarization in infinite volume using a basis of 2-loop master integrals.
