We perform an updated fit to LHC Higgs data and LEP electroweak precision tests in the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). We assume a generic structure of the SMEFT operators without imposing any flavour…

This note gives an overview of the tools for predicting expectations in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT) at the tree level and one loop available through event generators. Methods of event reweighting, the separate…

We write down a geometric realization of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) extended by $n_f$ flavours of light sterile neutrinos, a so-called geo$\nu$SMEFT. As with the geoSMEFT introduced by Helset, Martin and Trott, we…

The modern viewpoint is that the Standard Model is the leading part of an effective field theory that obeys the symmetry $SU(3)_C \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$. Since the discovery of the Higgs boson, it is generally assumed that this…

Taking into account the negative results of direct searches for beyond the Standard Model fields and the consequent mass gap between Standard Model and possible unknown states, the use of electroweak effective theories is justified. Whereas…

The Higgs mass is not protected by any symmetry in the Standard Model. Hence, the self-energy corrections to the Higgs mass become large due to the quadratic divergence terms. Veltman condition (V.C.) ensures that the coefficient of the…
