We discuss electroweak precision constraints on dimension-6 operators in the effective theory beyond the standard model. We identify the combinations of these operators that are constrained by the pole observables (the W and Z masses and on-shell decays) and by the W boson pair production. To this end, we define a set of effective couplings of W and Z bosons to fermions and to itself, which capture the effects of new physics corrections. This formalism clarifies which operators are constrained by which observable, independently of the adopted basis of operators. We obtain numerical constraints on the coefficients of dimension-6 operator in a form that can be easily adapted to any particular basis of operators, or any particular model with new heavy particles.

    hep-ph 2024-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The work supplies a modular SMEFT likelihood for EWPD that includes NLO effects and five input schemes, then combines it with LHC measurements to tighten constraints on lepton-flavor universality and quark coupling as...

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    High-energy amplitude ratios for longitudinal di-boson production approach unity in the SM and dimension-6 SMEFT but not necessarily in HEFT, making the W±_L Z_L to W±_L h cross section ratio a promising discriminator...

    A simultaneous fit to multiple ATLAS datasets constrains 48 SMEFT Wilson coefficients and matches subsets to 2HDM and heavy-vector models, finding consistency with the Standard Model.

  4. The Spurion Massive EFT (SMEFT)

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    SMEFT contact terms are decomposed into spurion structures whose coefficients come from higher-order Higgs singlet combinations, with W/Z masses, mixing, and fermion couplings fully saturated by dimension-eight operators.

  5. Effective field theory interpretation of ATLAS measurements involving the Higgs boson, electroweak bosons and the top quark

    hep-ex 2026-04 conditional novelty 4.0

    Three nonlinear interacting dark energy models with a saturation ('sparseness') scale are constrained against late-time cosmological data, showing mild preference for nonzero sparseness but no decisive improvement over ΛCDM.
