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…

Lepton flavor violation in the $\tau\mu$ sector would be a clear sign of Beyond Standard Model physics. We employ the SMEFT framework to study the process $e^+e^-\to\tau\mu$ at the ILC and CLIC. We find that the $e^+e^-$ beam polarizations…
The striking success of the Standard Model in explaining precision data and, at the same time, its lack of explanations for various fundamental phenomena, such as dark matter or the baryon asymmetry of the universe, suggests new physics at…
