    Abstract: We compute the leading order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon magnetic moment from lattice QCD. The result is somewhat larger, than the traditional experimental data-driven determination (R-ratio method). The recent Fermi National Laboratory measurement of the muon magnetic moment, which has been claiming strong hint of new physics beyond the Standard Model, is now put into a different perspective. Our result is compatible with the no new physics scenario.
