✦ Synopsis

We calculate the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the electromagnetic coupling at scale Mz by improving the determination of the hadronic contributions and their errors via a careful, e+e -data driven analysis.

I review recent estimates of the non-perturbative hadronic vacuum polarization contributions. Since these at present can only be evaluated in terms of experimental data of limited precision, the related uncertainties pose a serious limitation in our ability to make precise predictions.

I present a method for evaluating the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution below 1 GeV to a, which relies on analyticity, unitarity and chiral symmetry, as well as on data. The main advantage is that in the region just above threshold, where data are either scarce or have large errors, these th

We briefly review the current status of the hadronic light-by-light scattering correction to the muon g -2. Then we present our semi-analytical evaluation of the pion-pole contribution, using a description of the pionphoton-photon transition form factor based on large-Nc and short-distance properti
