Electroweak constraints on flavorful effective theories

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-08-04 v2 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

We derive model-independent constraints arising from the Z and W boson observables on dimension six operators in the effective theory beyond the Standard Model. In particular, we discuss the generic flavor structure for these operators as well as several flavor patterns motivated by simple new physics scenarios.
