Abstract
We report the first result for the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment with all errors systematically controlled. Several ensembles using flavors of physical mass Möbius domain-wall fermions, generated by the RBC and UKQCD collaborations, are employed to take the continuum and infinite volume limits of finite volume lattice . We find . Our value is consistent with previous model results and leaves little room for this notoriously difficult hadronic contribution to explain the difference between the standard model and the BNL experiment.

Anomalous Magnetic Moment Still Anomalous
Published 1 April 2020
Supercomputer simulations rule out a known quantum effect as the cause of the muon’s unexpectedly strong magnetic moment.
