This challenge calls into question the necessity of relativistic corrections in the calculation of the muon g-2 anomaly. The standard approach applies a Lorentz factor (γ) to adjust for relativistic time dilation, but our analysis demonstrates that this correction artificially inflates the theoretical prediction, creating the illusion of a discrepancy.

By removing the relativistic correction and relying only on classical electrodynamics, we obtain a theoretical value naturally aligned with experimental measurements, with only small deviations attributable to known quantum effects such as vacuum polarization and hadronic interactions. The conclusion is clear: relativity is unnecessary in this calculation. The g-2 anomaly does not require new physics—it is a consequence of including an unnecessary relativistic factor.

We challenge Fermilab to conduct a recalculation without the Lorentz factor and justify its continued use in this context. If relativity is fundamental, it must stand on its own merits. Here, it fails.
