In my talk, I will present a dispersive estimate of the $f_0(980)$ contribution to $(g-2)_\mu$. The performed analysis is a coupled-channel extension of the previous work, where $f_0(500)$ has already been addressed. Important ingredients are $\gamma^*\gamma^*\to \pi \pi$ and $\gamma^*\gamma^*\to K\bar{K}$ S-wave helicity amplitudes which rely on the novel unitarizaiton scheme for studying...

We study the HLbL contribution to g-2 in the kinematic region where the three loop momenta are large. We show how, even when the fourth photon is in the static limit, the massless quark loop gives the leading term of an operator product expansion. Power corrections are found to be small. Gluonic corrections are also included and the expansion is found to be well-behaved at relatively...

The largest part of the hadronic-vacuum-polarization (HVP) contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment is due to the intermediate state of two pions. Analyticity and unitarity do not only allow us to write this contribution in terms of the pion vector form factor (VFF), but also constrain the VFF itself. I will discuss fits of a dispersive representation of the pion VFF to $e^+e^-$...

The SM predicts zero values of CPV & TV in the decays of tau leptons except \tau^- \to \nu K^0_S [\pi,\pi\pi]. With neutrino oscillations I would give the golden medals for CPV & TV. I think that tau decays can get bronze medals in \tau^- \to \nu K [pi, \pi\pi, \eta]. Their hadronic final states are enough `complex'.
