Calibrated correlation between heavy-quark masses and Hadronic Vacuum Polarization observables at the precision frontier

The theoretical prediction of the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu$ depends crucially on the Hadronic Vacuum Polarization (HVP), and the tension between its dispersive and lattice-QCD determinations remains unresolved. We show that part of this puzzle can be addressed in the heavy-quark sector, where both descript...
