Effective Theory Analysis of Precision Electroweak Data
Abstract
We obtain the bounds on arbitrary linear combinations of operators of dimension 6 in the Standard Model. We consider a set of 21 flavor and CP conserving operators. Each of our 21 operators is tightly constrained by the standard set of electroweak measurements. We perform a fit to all relevant precision electroweak data and include neutrino scattering experiments, atomic parity violation, W mass, LEP1, SLD, and LEP2 data. Our results provide an efficient way of obtaining bounds on weakly coupled extensions of the Standard Model.
