A new evaluation of the hadronic vacuum polarisation contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment and to $\mathbf{\boldsymbol\alpha(m_Z^2)}$

abstract
We reevaluate the hadronic vacuum polarisation contributions to the muon magnetic anomaly and to the running of the electromagnetic coupling constant at the $Z$-boson mass. We include newest $e^+e^- \to$ hadrons cross-section data together with a phenomenological fit of the threshold region in the evaluation of the dispersion integrals. The precision in the individual datasets cannot be fully exploited due to discrepancies that lead to additional systematic uncertainty in particular between BABAR and KLOE data in the dominant $\pi^+\pi^-$ channel. For the muon $(g-2)/2$, we find for the lowest-order hadronic contribution $(694.0 \pm 4.0)\cdot10^{-10}$. The full Standard Model prediction differs by $3.3\sigma$ from the experimental value. The five-quark hadronic contribution to $\alpha(m_Z^2)$ is evaluated to be $(276.0\pm1.0)\cdot10^{-4}$.

The hVP contribution to the HFS in muonic hydrogen is 2.153(11) µeV, deviating from previous evaluations by ~10x the anticipated experimental precision, due to corrected recoil and finite-size interplay.
Isospin-corrected inclusive τ spectral functions yield light-quark-connected HVP and window quantities consistent with lattice QCD, but the 2π⁻π⁺π⁰ mode differs significantly from e⁺e⁻-based Pais expectations.
A general framework quantifies correlation-induced uncertainties in precision data combinations and applies it to e+e- to hadrons cross sections for muon g-2 HVP determinations.
A new model with SU(2)_D symmetry and vector-like muons mediates vector dark matter, simultaneously addressing relic abundance and muon g-2 while identifying an off-resonance suppression mechanism for light DM and deriving collider bounds.
The work supplies a modular SMEFT likelihood for EWPD that includes NLO effects and five input schemes, then combines it with LHC measurements to tighten constraints on lepton-flavor universality and quark coupling asymmetries.
Supernova models yield coupling limits g_a ≲ 0.9×10^{-10} and g_φ ≲ 0.4×10^{-10} for masses above 100 keV from gamma-ray observations, plus stronger trapping-regime limits from explosion energy, that are difficult to reconcile with a muon g-2 explanation.
Feasibility study of combined LQCD and experimental data on pion TFF via modified z-expansion fit reports up to 3x uncertainty reduction in singly-virtual limit but only 1.5x improvement for the pion-pole g-2 contribution.
The CDF W mass anomaly can be accommodated in the 2HDM via enhanced ΔT from scalar mass splittings, yielding updated constraints on the model's parameter space from global electroweak fits.
The updated SM prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment is 116592033(62)×10^{-11}, showing no tension with the experimental average of 38(63)×10^{-11}.
Preliminary lattice QCD results compute hadronic contributions to Δα(Q²) and Δsin²θ_W(Q²) via spectral reconstruction on N_f=2+1+1 physical-mass HISQ ensembles to obtain continuum-extrapolated values across the full energy range.
Chiral effective field theory and resonance chiral theory yield cross sections for e+e- to four pions that are one to two orders smaller than data, with hadronic vacuum polarization contributions to (g-2)μ of (0.680±0.062)×10^{-16} and (0.597±0.058)×10^{-16} for the two charge modes.
Lattice QCD on finer grids yields a_μ^LO-HVP = 715.1(3.4)×10^{-10}, producing a standard-model prediction for a_μ that differs from experiment by only 0.5 sigma.
Global analysis constrains fermionic DM to 120-350 GeV and CP-odd scalar to 350-600 GeV in a scotogenic extension, with DESI potentially ruling out inverted neutrino hierarchy and Z invisible width compatible with data at 3 sigma.
The Standard Model value for the muon anomalous magnetic moment is 116591810(43)×10^{-11}, 3.7σ below the Brookhaven experimental measurement.
