Abstract

We discuss briefly the kappa framework, proposed originally as a test for the Higgs couplings of the Standard Model (SM). Further, we discuss a generalization of this idea in terms of effective field theory. We sketch how to add dimension 6 operators to the SM Lagrangian and the renormalization process. Finally we show how to study the amplitudes of the resulting model at next-to-leading order and discuss possible experimental approaches.
