26. *CANCELLED* Simultaneous determination of SMEFT coefficients and PDFs

Zahari Dimitrov Kassabov Zaharieva (University of Turin)

31/08/2023, 14:00

Talk

I present a tool for the simultaneous determination of Parton Distribution Functions and EFT coefficients. I discuss the importance of this simultaneous fit, as well as challenges in obtaining proper constraints. I present the most comprehensive analysis of both PDF and EFT effects in the top sector, which will be reproducible with our tool.

25. Summary of LHC EFT WG activities

Talk

I will give an overview of the LHC EFT working group and summarise ongoing activities.

32. EFTs, models and matching: the necessity and caveats

Shankha Banerjee (CERN)

Talk

In this talk, I will address the distinction between two different kinds of Effective Field Theories. I will specifically discuss the differences between the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) and the Higgs Effective Field Theory and motivate the importance of both while interpreting data, providing an example for the scalar sector. I will then focus on the importance of global fits...
