Abstract:
The measured valued of the muon anomalous magnetic moment exhibits a puzzling three sigma discrepancy when compared to its Standard Model values. I will review the theory of the muon anomalous magnetic moment and I will argue that it is understood well-enough to be responsible for the current disagreement.
