Abstract We analyze the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $$g-2$$ g - 2 in the $$\mu \nu $$ μ ν SSM. This R-parity violating model solves the $$\mu $$ μ problem reproducing simultaneously neutrino data, only with the addition of right-handed neutrinos. In the framework of the $$\mu \nu $$ μ ν SSM, light left muon-sneutrino and wino masses can be naturally obtained driven by neutrino physics. This produces an increase of the dominant chargino-sneutrino loop contribution to muon $$g-2$$ g - 2 , solving the gap between the theoretical computation and the experimental data. To analyze the parameter space, we sample the $$\mu \nu $$ μ ν SSM using a likelihood data-driven method, paying special attention to reproduce the current experimental data on neutrino and Higgs physics, as well as flavor observables such as B and $$\mu $$ μ decays. We then apply the constraints from LHC searches for events with multi-leptons + MET on the viable regions found. They can probe these regions through chargino–chargino, chargino–neutralino and neutralino–neutralino pair production. We conclude that significant regions of the parameter space of the $$\mu \nu \mathrm{SSM}$$ μ ν SSM can explain muon $$g-2$$ g - 2 data.
