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…

Muonium is one of the best probes for the test of the bound-state QED, owing to the absence of the effect from the internal structure of nucleons. The recent establishment of intense pulsed muon…

Accelerator performance analysis of the Fermilab Muon Campus

Understanding the MiniBooNE and the muon and electron g − 2 anomalies with a light Z′ and a second Higgs doublet

Two of the most widely studied extensions of the Standard Model (SM) are a) the addition of a new U(1) symmetry to its existing gauge groups, and b) the expansion of its scalar sector to incorporate…

Two-Higgs doublet solution to the LSND, MiniBooNE and muon g−2 anomalies

We show that one of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model, the addition of a second Higgs doublet, when combined with a dark sector singlet scalar, allows us to: $i)$ explain the…

Hadronic Vacuum Polarization Contribution to the Anomalous Magnetic Moments of Leptons from First Principles.

The leading, strong-interaction contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron, muon, and tau is computed using lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) simulations using six lattice spacings.
