Description

For twenty years, a persistent discrepancy between experimental
measurements and theoretical calculations of the muon anomalous magnetic
moment have provided tantalising hints of new physics. In recent years,
improvements to the experimental precision have appeared to make the
tension stronger and stronger. However, at the same time, our lattice calculation overturned the theoretical consensus, completely eliminating the tension. I will present the latest results from the Budapest-Marseille-Wuppertal (BMW) and DMZ collaborations, with a determination of the hadronic vacuum polarisation contribution to a precision of 0.45%.
