Constraining new physics effective interactions via a global fit of electroweak, Drell-Yan, Higgs, top, and flavour observables
Abstract
We present results from a global fit of Standard Model parameters and dimension-6 SMEFT Wilson coefficients that includes electroweak, Drell-Yan, Higgs-boson, top-quark, and flavour observables. Fits obtained by floating individual coefficients are also discussed. The leading-order scale dependence of the SMEFT Wilson coefficients is consistently included in the evolution from the UV scale to the electroweak scale and the low-energy scale of flavour observables. In defining the SMEFT set of active operators we consider both the U(3)5 and the U(2)5 flavour symmetric limits. All fits are obtained within the HEPfit framework and are based on the most recent experimental results and state-of-the-art theoretical predictions for all the observables considered.
