Description
The 2026 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics was recently awarded to the Muon g-2 Collaborations from CERN, BNL, and Fermilab for their high-precision measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (a_mu = (g – 2)/2) spanning six decades. This talk will present the final Fermilab results for a_mu, which achieved a precision of 127 parts per billion. Comparison with theoretical calculations of comparable precision will enable some of the most stringent tests of the Standard Model and most sensitive searches for new physics, some of which will be previewed in this presentation. So, while this result for a_mu may be the final Fermilab measurement of muon g-2, it will not be the final measurement from Fermilab Muon g-2!
