A higher precision measurement of the anomalous g value, aμ=(g-2)/2, for the positive muon has been made at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron, based on data collected in the year 2000. The result aμ+=11 659 204(7)(5)×10-10 (0.7 ppm) is in good agreement with previous measurements and has an error about one-half that of the combined previous data. The present world average experimental value is aμ(expt)=11 659 203(8)×10-10 (0.7 ppm).
