Gilberto Colangelo - Muon g-2: review of the calculation of hadronic contributions
RTG seminar on November 17th, 2021
In the Standard Model calculation of the Muon g-2 the hadronic contributions are solely responsible for the final uncertainty. I will review the calculation of both the hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) as well as the hadronic light-by-light (HLbL) contributions, with both the analytic as well as with the lattice approach. In particular, the discrepancy between the data-driven and lattice calculation of the HVP contribution is a puzzle of current high concern, which I will discuss in detail.
