چکیده

Constraints on the full set of Standard Model dimension-6 operators have previously used triple-gauge couplings to complement the constraints obtainable from Higgs signal strengths. Here we extend previous analyses of the Higgs sector constraints by including information from the associated production of Higgs and massive vector bosons (H+V production), which excludes a direction of limited sensitivity allowed by partial cancellations in the triple-gauge sector measured at LEP. Kinematic distributions in H+V production provide improved sensitivity to dimension-6 operators, as we illustrate here with simulations of the invariant mass and pT distributions measured by D0 and ATLAS, respectively. We provide bounds from a global fit to a complete set of CP-conserving operators affecting Higgs physics.

Higgs coupling measurements at the LHC

Due to the absence of tantalising hints for new physics during the LHC’s Run 1, the extension of the Higgs sector by dimension-six operators will provide the new phenomenological standard for searches of non-resonant extensions of the Standard Model. Using all dominant and subdominant Higgs production mechanisms at the LHC, we compute the constraints on Higgs physics-relevant dimension-six oper...

Constraints on Electroweak Contact Interactions from LEP and Tevatron Data

A complete set of dimension-6 effective contact interactions involving Higgs, gauge bosons and quarks is studied. Limits on the coefficients of these new operators are obtained from the experimental values of the Z and W gauge bosons widths. 12.60.-i,12.60.Fr,12.60.Cn,13.38.-b Typeset using REVTEX 1

The effective Standard Model after LHC Run I

We treat the Standard Model as the low-energy limit of an effective field theory that incorporates higher-dimensional operators to capture the effects of decoupled new physics. We consider the constraints imposed on the coefficients of dimension-6 operators by electroweak precision tests (EWPTs), applying a framework for the effects of dimension6 operators on electroweak precision tests that is...

Lepton flavour violation in composite Higgs models

We discuss in detail the constraints on the partial compositeness coming from flavour and CP violation in the leptonic sector. In the first part we present a formulation of partial compositeness in terms of a flavour symmetry group and a set of spurions, whose background values specify the symmetry breaking pattern. In such a framework we construct the complete set of dimension-six operators de...

Little Higgs Models and Electroweak Measurements

Using effective field theory approach, we study the constraints from electroweak data on the SU(5)/SO(5), SU(6)/SP (6), SU(3)×U(1) little Higgs models and their variations. We construct an effective theory valid above the electroweak symmetry breaking scale in these models that includes dimension-six operators induced by integrating out heavy fields. We calculate the constraints on the models u...
