Standard Model Muon Magnetic Dipole Moment
Abstract
The most recent high-precision determination of the hadronic leading order contribution to the muon magnetic dipole moment within the Standard Model of particle physics has revealed a five standard deviation discrepancy with the previous determination with the highest precision. A systematic effect of the luminous volume created during the measurements leading to the determinations seems to be the source of the discrepancy. Correcting for the luminous volume effect allows a consistent determination of the Standard Model muon magnetic dipole moment with precision that is comparable to the latest world average from muon spin precession experiments.
