I discuss how modified EW interactions lead to energy growth in $2\to 2$ scattering amplitudes and how the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory can be used in conjunction with the Goldstone boson equivalence theorem to…
We present a broad study of collider processes that embed $2 \to 2$ scattering amplitudes involving top quarks in the Electroweak sector. We parametrise the modified interactions using the Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework and…
We derive the contact terms contributing to the four-point amplitudes of the standard-model particles, keeping terms with up to quartic energy growth. Imposing just the unbroken low-energy symmetry, and treating the electroweak gauge bosons…
In the Standard Model (SM), electroweak (EW) corrections become significant at high energies, particularly at the tera-electronvolt scale and beyond, due to the presence of Sudakov logarithms. At these energy scales, the Standard Model…
With no direct evidence for new physics at the TeV scale, deviations from the Standard Model (SM) can be explored systematically through Effective Field Theories (EFTs) such as the Standard Model EFT (SMEFT). SMEFT extends the SM by…
We present a map between the tree-level Standard Model Effective Theory (SMEFT) in the Warsaw basis and massive on-shell amplitudes. As a first step, we focus on the electroweak sector without fermions. We describe the Feynman rules for a…
We apply on-shell methods to the bottom-up construction of electroweak amplitudes, allowing for both renormalizable and non-renormalizable interactions. We use the little-group covariant massive-spinor formalism, and flesh out some of its…

The top quark as the heaviest particle in the Standard Model (SM) defines an important mass scale for Higgs physics and the electroweak scale itself. It is therefore a well-motivated degree of freedom which could reveal the presence of new…
Nowadays, the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) provides a standard framework to parameterize potential deviations from the Standard Model and to combine information from multiple processes in global analyses. This review…

Top quark pair production in association with a $Z$-boson or a photon at the LHC directly probes neutral top-quark couplings. We present predictions for these two processes in the Standard Model (SM) Effective Field Theory (EFT) at…
Colliders continue to push our understanding of electroweak (EW) interactions to ever higher energies. At high energies, many observables in the broken EW theory are expected to approach the unbroken theory. This is the electroweak…
Top quark interactions offer a window into possible new high scale physics and many models of new physics predict that the top quark interactions will deviate significantly from those predicted by the Standard Model (SM). We present an…
A model-independent anatomy of $\Delta F= 2$ transitions in the context of the Weak Effective Theory (WET) below the electroweak scale (EW) and the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) above the EW scale is discussed. Two master…
The total cross section of the process $\mu^- \mu^+ \to \nu_\mu \bar{\nu}_\mu t \bar{t} H$ has strong dependence on the CP phase $\xi$ of the top Yukawa coupling, where the ratio of $\xi=\pi$ and $\xi = 0$ (SM) grows to 670 at $\sqrt{s}$ =…
We derive bounds on couplings in the standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) as a consequence of causality and the analytic structure of scattering amplitudes. In the SMEFT, there are 64 independent operators at mass dimension eight…
In this work, we investigate three typical new physics resonances which couple to the standard model (SM) quarks via direct top-quark flavor-changing interactions. We identify the possible SMEFT operators electroweak scale and analyze their…
Deviations of the top electroweak couplings from their Standard Model values imply that certain amplitudes for the scattering of third generation fermions and longitudinally polarized vector bosons or Higgses diverge quadratically with…
