What does the Standard Model predict for the muon's magnetic moment?

Predicting the numerical value of the muon’s magnetic moment is one of the most challenging calculations in high-energy physics. Some physicists spend most of their careers improving their calculations with greater precision. Why do physicists care about the magnetic properties of this particle? Because the information of each particle and force is encoded in the … Read more
