Solving the electron and muon $$g-2$$ g - 2 anomalies in $$Z'$$ Z ′ models
Abstract We consider simultaneous explanations of the electron and muon $$g-2$$ g - 2 anomalies through a single $$Z'$$ Z ′ of a $$U(1)'$$ U ( 1 ) ′ extension to the Standard Model (SM). We first perform a model-independent analysis of the viable flavour-dependent $$Z'$$ Z ′ couplings...
