We consider a muonphilic axion-like-particle (ALP), denoted as a , lighter than twice the muon mass. ALPs of this mass range dominantly decay into a pair of photons, induced by a triangular muon loop. Such light muonphilic ALPs are naturally long-lived. At the atmosphere, the ALPs are copiously produced from charged-meson decays in air showers, such as π ± → µ ± νa , via the ALP-muon coupling g aµµ . After propagating tens of kilometers, the ALPs decay with a → γγ inside large-volume Cherenkov…

Starting from first principles, we study radiative transfer by new feebly-interacting bosons (FIBs) such as axions, axion-like particles (ALPs), dark photons, and others. Our key simplification is to

Data from the Muon g-2 experiment and measurements of the fine structure constant suggest that the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon and electron are at odds with standard model expectations. We

Substantial precision is reached to discriminate between the measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the predictions of dispersive methods, which favours the experimentally measured value over those obtained using the dispersion relation.
