Rapid Response Workshop on Muon g-2

April 30, 2021, National Taiwan University, Taipei

Introduction

The magnetic dipole moment of muon precisely measured by Brookhaven shows a significant deviation about 3.6 standard deviation from SM prediction. This discrepancy not only triggers many explanations by physics beyond the SM, but also calls for improvement of theory calculations. Furthermore, experiment E989 at Fermilab by muon g-2 collaboration aims at improving the measurement to a precision of 0.14 parts per million. On April 7th, the first result from Fermilab has been unveiled with a 3.3 standard deviation greater than the SM prediction. Combining with Brookhaven measurement, the discrepancy between SM and data increases to 4.2 standard deviation.

The aim of this rapid response workshop is to bring together experts in Taiwan to discuss this important update, including review the current status of theory predictions (including recent lattice calculations), details of experimental measurement and possible explanations from new physics beyond the SM.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all talks will be broadcast online in real time while domestic participants can still attend the meeting in person.
