Top and Beauty synergies in SMEFT-fits at present and future colliders
Abstract
We perform global fits within Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) combining top-quark pair production processes and decay with flavor changing neutral current transitions and in three stages: using existing data from the LHC and -factories, using projections for the HL-LHC and Belle II, and studying the additional new physics impact from a future lepton collider. The latter is ideally suited to directly probe transitions. We observe powerful synergies in combining both top and beauty observables as flat directions are removed and more operators can be probed. We find that a future lepton collider significantly enhances this interplay and qualitatively improves global SMEFT fits.
