Muon and electron and lepton masses in flavor models

arXiv:2003.06633 · doi:10.1007/JHEP06(2020)087

Abstract

The stringent experimental bound on is compatible with a simultaneous and sizable new physics contribution to the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments (), only if we assume a non-trivial flavor structure of the dipole operator coefficients. We propose a mechanism in which the realization of the 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 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 ~TeV.
