Muon g-2 in the MSSM constrained by simple SO(10) SUSY GUT

Abstract

We show that the best fits of the MSSM constrained by a simple SO(10) SUSY GUT are consistent with the present data on the muon anomalous magnetic moment. The best fits assume rather large values of tan$\beta\approx 50$, and in our analysis they are not {\em a priori} correlated in any way, directly or indirectly, with the experimental limit on $a_\mu$. Regions in the SUSY parameter space, which are currently ruled out because of too large $a_\mu^{SUSY}$, are already excluded in the global fit by excessive corrections to $m_b$, unacceptable $BR(b\to s\gamma)$, or direct experimental limits on sparticle masses. However, our results indicate that the accuracy expected in the ongoing E821 experiment at BNL will eventually turn the muon anomalous magnetic moment into a major constraint for this regime of the MSSM.
