Title: Muon g-2: A Probe of Short-distance Physics

Abstract: 

The Brookhaven experiment E821 has recently announced a new
measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment (g-2), which differs
from the theoretical prediction by 2.6 sigma.  I will review the
Standard Model prediction and uncertainties in the QED, hadronic and
electroweak contributions.  Possible explanations of the theory
vs. experiment discrepancy, due to supersymmetric loop effects and
other ``New Physics'' scenarios, will be discussed.
