Abstract
In this talk, I will discuss some of our recent adventures exploring the magnetic hyperfine anomaly — the effect of the finite distribution of the nuclear magnetic moment on the hyperfine structure. I will motivate our interest in this effect: as a problem to be removed to further enable precision searches for new physics in atoms and molecules; and as an object to be reckoned with and studied, towards improving the understanding of nuclear structure and models. This journey has taken us from many-electron, to hydrogen-like, and to muonic systems.
