چکیده
We review the current status of theoretical calculations of the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Different approaches and related issues such as OPE constraints and large breaking of chiral symmetry are discussed. Combining results of different models with educated guesses on the errors we come to the estimate a HLbL = (10.5 ± 2.6) × 10 . The text is prepared as a contribution to the Glasgow White Paper on the present status of the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment.

متن کاملHadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment from lattice QCD.
The most compelling possibility for a new law of nature beyond the four fundamental forces comprising the standard model of high-energy physics is the discrepancy between measurements and calculations of the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Until now a key part of the calculation, the hadronic light-by-light contribution, has only been accessible from models of QCD, the quantum description of th...
متن کاملHadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon g - 2: an effective field theory approach.
The hadronic light-by-light contribution to a(mu), the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, is discussed from the point of view of an effective low-energy theory. As an application, the coefficient of the leading logarithm arising from the two-loop graphs involving two anomalous vertices is computed, and found to be positive. This corresponds to a positive sign for the pion-pole contribution ...

We compute the hadronic light-by-light scattering contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, a m had , in chiral perturbation theory that are enhanced by large logarithms and a factor of NC . They depend on a low-energy constant constrained by h ! mm and p0 ! ee branching ratios. However, the dependence of aLL m had on nonlogarithmically enhanced effects cannot be constrained except t...
متن کاملHadronic light-by-light contribution to muon g - 2 in chiral perturbation theory.
We compute the hadronic light-by-light scattering contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, a(LL)(mu)(had), in chiral perturbation theory that are enhanced by large logarithms and a factor of N(C). They depend on a low-energy constant constrained by eta-->mu(+) mu(-) and pi(0)-->e(+)e(-) branching ratios. However, the dependence of a(LL)(mu)(had) on nonlogarithmically enhanced effect...
