Precision in effective field theory studies for top quark and Higgs physics
Precision in effective field theory studies for top quark and Higgs physics
- Event time: 1:00pm
- Event date: 30th October 2019
- Speaker: Eleni Vryonidou (CERN)
- Location: Higgs Centre Seminar Room, Room 4305, James Clerk Maxwell Building (JCMB) James Clerk Maxwell Building Peter Guthrie Tait Road Edinburgh EH9 3FD GB
Event details
In this talk I review recent progress in the computation of processes involving the Higgs and the top quark in the framework of Standard Model Effective Theory including higher-order corrections. In particular I will discuss the impact of QCD corrections and the importance of using these results in a global EFT fit in the top sector. The top and Higgs interplay which manifests through Higgs processes involving top quark loops will also be discussed.
About Particle Physics Theory seminars
The Particle Physics Theory seminar is a weekly series of talks reflecting the diverse interests of the group. Topics include analytic and numerical calculations based on the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, theories exploring new physics, as well as more formal developments in gauge theories and gravity..
