Muon and electron g−2g-2 and lepton masses in flavor models

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

The stringent experimental bound on μ→eγμ\rightarrow e γ is compatible with a simultaneous and sizable new physics contribution to the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments (g−2)ℓ(g-2)_\ell (ℓ=e, μ\ell=e,\,μ), only if we assume a non-trivial flavor structure of the dipole operator coefficients. We propose a mechanism in which the realization of the (g−2)ℓ(g-2)_\ell correction is manifestly related to the mass generation through a flavor symmetry. A radiative flavon correction to the fermion mass gives a contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment. In this framework, we introduce a chiral enhancement from a non-trivial O(1)\mathcal{O}(1) quartic coupling of the scalar potential. We show that the muon and electron anomalies can be simultaneously explained in a vast region of the parameter space with predicted vector-like mediators of masses as large as Mχ∈[0.6,2.5]M_χ\in [0.6,2.5]~TeV.
