Brigham and Women's Hospital Plans Large MUMPS-Based PC Network
An affiliate of Harvard Medical School, Brigham and Women's Hospital (Boston) is one of the largest hospitals in the US. The hospital systems run many applications that are highly integrated, with about 30,000 interconnections between them. Brigham decided to develop a new platform that would be based on industry standards and that could keep up with advances in technology. To develop new applications, the facility chose to work with Co-Windows, designed by the MUMPS Collaborative. For a new platform, Brigham decided on standard MUMPS (Massachusetts General Hospital Utility Multi-Programming System) and networked personal computers (PC), which give more power to each user. Eventually, the hospital expects to have about 4,000 PCs, 100 primary servers, 200 local servers, and about 50 PC-application servers.

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon in the Standard Model: an update
We present the current Standard Model (SM) prediction for the muon anomalous magnetic moment, \\(a_\\mu\\), updating the first White Paper (WP20) [1]. The pure QED and electroweak contributions have been further consolidated, while hadronic contributions continue to be responsible for the bulk of the uncertainty of the SM prediction. Significant progress has been achieved in the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution using both the data-driven dispersive approach as well as lattice-QCD calculations, leading to a reduction of the uncertainty by almost a factor of two. The most important development since WP20 is the change in the estimate of the leading-order hadronic-vacuum-polarization (LO HVP) contribution. A new measurement of the \\(e^+e^-\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-\\) cross section by CMD-3 has increased the tensions among data-driven dispersive evaluations of the LO HVP contribution to a level that makes it impossible to combine the results in a meaningful way. At the same time, the attainable precision of lattice-QCD calculations has increased substantially and allows for a consolidated lattice-QCD average of the LO HVP contribution with a precision of about 0.9%. Adopting the latter in this update has resulted in a major upward shift of the total SM prediction, which now reads \\(a_\\mu^\\text{SM} = 116\\,592\\,033(62)\\times 10^{-11}\\) (530 ppb). When compared against the current experimental average based on the E821 experiment and runs 1-6 of E989 at Fermilab, one finds \\(a_\\mu^\\text{exp} - a_\\mu^\\text{SM} =38(63)\\times 10^{-11}\\), which implies that there is no tension between the SM and experiment at the current level of precision. The final precision of E989 (127 ppb) is the target of future efforts by the Theory Initiative. The resolution of the tensions among data-driven dispersive evaluations of the LO HVP contribution will be a key element in this endeavor.
