TTP96-21 Electroweak corrections to the muon anomalous magnetic moment

The two-loop electroweak radiative corrections to the muon's anomalous magnetic moment, $a_\mu\equiv (g_\mu-2)/2$, are presented. We obtain an overall 22.6\% reduction in the electroweak contribution $a_\mu^{\rm EW}$ from $195\times 10^{-11}$ to $151(4)\times 10^{-11}$. Implications for the full standard model prediction and an upcoming high precision measurement of $a_\mu$ are briefly discussed. Some aspects of the calculations are discussed in detail.
