The anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and the muon: improved QED predictions using Padé approximants

We use Padé Approximants to obtain improved predictions for the anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and the muon. These are needed because of the very precise experimental values presently obtained for the electron, and soon to be obtained at BNL for the muon. The Padé prediction for the QED...

Sumario:We use Padé Approximants to obtain improved predictions for the anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and the muon. These are needed because of the very precise experimental values presently obtained for the electron, and soon to be obtained at BNL for the muon. The Padé prediction for the QED contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon differs significantly from the naive perturbative prediction.
