parallel talk BSM II

Speaker

Ulrich Schubert (University at Buffalo)

Description

Muon electron scattering experiments, like MUonE, offer an opportunity
for an improved measurement of the LO hadronic running of $\alpha$, resulting in a reduced theoretical uncertainty of the leading hadronic effects on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. In this talk I present the possible impact of BSM physics on this measurement. In particular I will answer the question if a BSM explanation of the moun $g-2$ could be indirectly fitted into the leading hadronic effects, causing inadvertent agreement with the SM.
