The muon anomalous magnetic moment is one of the most precisely measured quantities in elementary particle physics and provides one of the most stringent tests of relativistic quantum field theory as a fundamental theoretical framework. It allows for an extremely precise check of the standard model of elementary particles and of its limitations. This book reviews the present state of knowledge of the anomalous magnetic moment a=(g-2)/2 of the muon. Recent experiments at the Brookhaven National Laboratory now reach the unbelievable precision of 0.5 parts per million, improving the accuracy of previous g-2 experiments at CERN by a factor of 14. In addition, quantum electrodynamics and electroweak and hadronic effects are reviewed. Since non-perturbative hadronic effects play a key role for the precision test, their evaluation is described in detail. Perspectives for future improvements of the theoretical and experimental precision are considered. The new edition features improved theoretical predictions to match upcoming experiments, like the one at Fermilab. Additionally the new more precise basic parameters are presented. 410 0$aSpringer Tracts in Modern Physics,$x0081-3869 ;$v274 606 $aNuclear physics 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aString theory 606 $aParticle and Nuclear Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23002 606 $aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048 615 0$aNuclear physics. 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aString theory. 615 14$aParticle and Nuclear Physics. 615 24$aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory. 676 $a538.3 700 $aJegerlehner$b Friedrich$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0825035 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254600803321 996 $aAnomalous Magnetic Moment of the Muon$91835167 997 $aUNINA
