Hadronic vacuum polarization of the muon on 2+1+1-flavor HISQ ensembles: An update

HPQCD, and MILC Collaborations

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

We give an update on the status of the Fermilab Lattice-HPQCD-MILC calculation of the contribution to the muon's anomolous magnetic moment from the light-quark, connected hadronic vacuum polarization. We present preliminary, blinded results in the intermediate window for this contribution, all μW. The calculation is performed on Nf = 2 + 1 + 1 highly-improved staggered quark (HISQ) ensembles from the MILC collaboration with physical pion mass at four lattice spacings between 0.15 fm and 0.06 fm. We also present preliminary results for a study of the two-pion contributions to the vector-current correlation function performed on the 0.15 fm ensemble where we see a factor of four improvement over traditional noise reduction techniques.
