| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have reevaluated the hadronic leading-order contribution to the muon g-2, which has the largest uncertainty in the Standard Model prediction for the muon g-2. Compared to our previous analysis, we have included new input data, have reevaluated the uncertainties associated with radiative corrections to the hadronic data, and have improved the way to combine various hadronic data. Our main conclusion is that there is a 3.7 sigma discrepancy between the experimental value of the muon g-2 and the Standard Model prediction, which may be a hint of new physics beyond the Standard Model.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
素粒子の標準模型を超える新物理が存在するかどうかは素粒子物理学において大きな問題である。我々の得た結果はミューオンの異常磁気能率について標準模型の予言する値と実験値とがあまりよく一致しないことを意味しており、これによって標準模型を超える新物理が存在する可能性はさらに高まったと言える。
