Anomalous moments of the top quark arises from one loop corrections to the vertices $\bar t t g$ and $\bar t t \gamma$. We study these anomalous couplings in different frameworks: effective theories, Standard Model and 2HDM. We use…
Using an effective Lagrangian approach, we perform a model-independent analysis of the interactions among electroweak gauge bosons and the third generation quarks, i.e. the Wtb, Ztt and Zbb couplings. After one imposes the known…
We compute the one-loop anomalous dimensions of the low-energy effective Lagrangian below the electroweak scale, up to terms of dimension six. The theory has 70 dimension-five and 3631 dimension-six Hermitian operators that preserve baryon…
