Abstract

This project aims to compute the new contributions to the muonanomalous magnetic moment ($g_\mu-2$) of a new extention of theStandard Model where neutrino masses and mixings are dinamicallygenerated by a dark light sector and that can explain the low energyelectron-like event excess observed by the MiniBooNE experiment. We will also analyze the process $\mu \to e \gamma$ in the context of this model, determine the current experimental constraints and examinefuture perspectives.
