The determination of the $Zb\bar{b}$ coupling in experiments has been a long-standing challenge, as the limited precision of off $Z$-pole measurements at the LEP has resulted in two degenerate solutions remained to be resolved. In this…
Electroweak dipole moments of the top quark are conjectured and their effect in polarized $e^+e^-$ collisions is examined for the expectation values of two different $CP$-odd observables. One of these observables probes the real part of the…
We present SMEFiT3.0, an updated global SMEFT analysis of Higgs, top quark, and diboson production data from the LHC complemented by electroweak precision observables (EWPOs) from LEP and SLD. We consider recent inclusive and differential…
We derive present constraints on, and prospective sensitivity to, the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the top quark ($d_t$) implied by searches for the EDMs of the electron and nucleons. Above the electroweak scale $v$, the $d_t$ arises…

We investigate the weak electric and magnetic dipole moments of top quark-Z boson interactions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the International Linear Collider (ILC). Their vanishingly small magnitude in the Standard Model makes…
We investigate the effects of the new scalars in a two-Higgs-doublet model on the weak magnetic dipole moments of the fermions at the $Z$ peak. Proportionality of the Yukawa couplings to the fermion masses, and to $\tan{\beta}$, makes such…
Low-energy results from measurements of leptonic dipole operators are used to derive constraints on phases of the MSSM. After rediscovering older bounds on these phases, we try to investigate the impact of these possibly non-vanishing…

The one-loop Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) contributions to the weak and electromagnetic dipole form factors of heavy fermions are reviewed. For the $Z$ boson on shell, the weak-magnetic and weak-electric dipole moments of…
We investigate CP-violating effects induced by light top partners in composite Higgs theories. We find that sizable contributions to the dipole moments of the light SM quarks and leptons are generically generated at the two-loop level…
LEP precision on electroweak measurements was sufficient not to hamper the extraction of Higgs couplings at the LHC. But the foreseen permille-level Higgs measurements at future lepton colliders might suffer from parametric electroweak…
