Abstract

The Large Hadron Electron Collider and the Future Circular Collider-hadron electron with high center-of-mass energy and luminosity allow to better understand the Standard Model and to examine new physics beyond the Standard Model in the electroweak sector. Multi-boson processes permit for a measurement of the gauge boson self-interactions of the Standard Model that can be used to determine the anomalous gauge boson couplings. For this purpose, we present a study of the process epνeγγjep \rightarrow \nu_{e} \gamma \gamma j at the Large Hadron Electron Collider with center-of-mass energies of 1.30, 1.98 TeV and at the Future Circular Collider-hadron electron with center-of-mass energies of 7.07, 10 TeV to interpret the anomalous quartic WWγγWW\gamma\gamma gauge couplings using a model independent way in the framework of effective field theory. We obtain the sensitivity limits at 95%95\% Confidence Level on 13 different anomalous couplings arising from dimension-8 operators. The best limit in fMi/Λ4f_{Mi}/\Lambda^{4} (i=0,1,2,3,4,5,7i=0,1,2,3,4,5,7) parameters is obtained for fM2/Λ4f_{M2}/\Lambda^{4} parameter while the best sensitivity derived on fTi/Λ4f_{Ti}/\Lambda^{4} (i=0,1,2,5,6,7i=0,1,2,5,6,7) parameters is obtained for fT5/Λ4f_{T5}/\Lambda^{4}. In addition, this study is the first report on the anomalous quartic couplings determined by effective Lagrangians at epep colliders.
