    We present a detailed analysis on the possible maximal value of the muon (g-2) (= 2 a_mu) within the context of effective SUSY models with R parity conservation. First of all, the mixing among the second and the third family sleptons can contribute at one loop level to the a_mu(SUSY) and tau -> mu gamma simultaneously. One finds that the a_mu(SUSY) can be as large as (10-20)*10^-10 for any tan beta, imposing the upper limit on the tau -> mu gamma branching ratio. Furthermore, the two-loop Barr-Zee type contributions to a_mu(SUSY) can be significant for large tan beta, if a stop is light and mu and A_t are large enough (O(1) TeV). In this case, it is possible to have a_mu(SUSY) upto O(10)*10^-10 without conflicting with tau -> l gamma. We conclude that the possible maximal value for a_mu(SUSY) is about 20*10^-10 for any tan beta. Therefore the BNL experiment on the muon a_mu can exclude the effective SUSY models only if the measured deviation is larger than \sim 30*10^-10.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

    Persistence of singlet fluctuations in the coupled spin tetrahedra system Cu2Te2O5Br2 revealed by high-field magnetization and 79Br NQR - 125Te NMR

    We present high-field magnetization and 79^{79}Br nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and 125^{125}Te nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies in the weakly coupled Cu2+^{2+} (S=1/2S=1/2) tetrahedral system Cu2_2Te2_2O5_5Br2_2. The field-induced level crossing effects were observed by the magnetization measurements in a long-ranged magnetically ordered state which was confirmed by a strong divergence of the spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 at T0=13.5 K. In the paramagnetic state, 1/T1 reveals an effective singlet-triplet spin gap much larger than that observed by static bulk measurements. Our results imply that the inter- and the intra-tetrahedral interactions compete, but at the same time they cooperate strengthening effectively the local intratetrahedral exchange couplings. We discuss that the unusual feature originates from the frustrated intertetrahedral interactions.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted in Phys. Rev. B as a Rapid Communication
