Dimension-8 SMEFT matching conditions for the low-energy effective field theory [PDF]
In particle physics, the modern view is to categorize things in terms of effective field theories (EFTs). Above the weak scale, we have the SMEFT, formed when the heavy new physics (NP) is integrated out, and for which the Standard Model (SM) is the ...

SIMUnet: an open-source tool for simultaneous global fits of EFT Wilson coefficients and PDFs. [PDF]
We present the open-source SIMUnet code, designed to fit Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) Wilson coefficient alongside Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) of the proton. SIMUnet can perform SMEFT global fits, as well as simultaneous fits of

A case study of SMEFT O 1 / Λ 4 $$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ effects in diboson processes: pp → W ±(ℓ ± ν)γ [PDF]
In this paper we explore pp → W ± (ℓ ± ν)γ to O 1 / Λ 4 $$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ in the SMEFT expansion. Calculations to this order are necessary to properly capture SMEFT contributions that grow with energy, as the interference ...

Dimension-8 SMEFT contact-terms for vector-pair production via on-shell Higgsing [PDF]
We derive the dimension-8 standard-model effective theory (SMEFT) contact terms relevant for vector-pair production at the LHC and lepton colliders.

A global analysis of the SMEFT under the minimal MFV assumption [PDF]
We present comprehensive global fits of the SMEFT under the minimal minimal flavour violation (MFV) hypothesis, i.e. assuming that only the flavour-symmetric and CP-invariant operators are relevant at the high scale.

Higgs decays to two leptons and a photon beyond leading order in the SMEFT
We present the three-body decay of the Higgs boson into two leptons and a photon to dimension-eight in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT).

SMEFT as a slice of HEFT’s parameter space [PDF]
The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) is the parametrization chosen to interpret many modern measurements. We have recently discussed, building on the work of other groups, that its overall framework can be experimentally tested, beyond ...

Two‐to‐Two Processes at an Electron‐Muon Collider
Based on a recent proposal to build an electron‐muon collider, we study two‐to‐two production processes e−μ+⟶ff¯, γγ that originate from dimension 6 and 8 operators. We compare the sensitivity to those effective couplings obtained at the collider with that of low energy measurements of μ⟶eγ, μ⟶ee¯e, and μ⟶e conversion that have recently been reported ...

Mapping the SMEFT to discoverable models
The matching of specific new physics scenarios onto the SMEFT framework is a well-understood procedure. The inverse problem, the matching of the SMEFT to UV scenarios, is more difficult and requires the development of new methods to perform a systematic ...

On the Impact of the LHC Run 2 Data on General Composite Higgs Scenarios
We study the impact of Run 2 LHC data on general composite Higgs scenarios, where nonlinear effects, mixing with additional scalars, and new fermionic degrees of freedom could simultaneously contribute to the modification of Higgs properties. We obtain new experimental limits on the scale of compositeness, the mixing with singlets and doublets with the
