Description

In the context of a possible Higgs pole run at FCC-ee, I discuss the theoretical `price' of a large electron Yukawa modification. I start from an effective field theory viewpoint, considering the impact of renormalisation group effects on related observables and also examining assumptions on the broader UV flavour structure. I will then give an overview of the landscape of simplified models, investigating phenomenological constraints arising at higher orders.
