The new (g-2) for muon measurement and limits on the light Higgs bosons in 2HDM (II)

Abstract

We discuss how new data for a_{mu}= (g-2)_{mu}/2 improve constraints on new physics. Using two types of estimations of a_{mu}^{had} (Davier & H"{o}cker (case A) and Jegerlehner2000 (case B)) we evaluate 95% CL intervals for a new contribution, which can be used to constrain any model beyond the Standard Model. We apply these intervals to the general 2HDM ("Model II"), where up to now one light neutral Higgs particle, h or A, was allowed by the data. Assuming that only one Higgs boson contributes to a_{mu}^{2HDM} the two-loop calculation based on the case A leads to the exclusion of scalar $h$ while a pseudoscalar with mass between 10 and 70 GeV (for tan beta > 20) is allowed. For case B the upper limits for tan beta for both scalar and pseudoscalar are obtained.
