Description

This talk will consider the potential of LHC Drell-Yan measurements to probe several aspects of the SMEFT. We consider the full spectrum of data, including the invariant mass, forward-backward asymmetry,transverse momentum and lepton angular distributions. We demonstrate the importance of higher-order dimension-8 terms in the SMEFT expansion. We also discuss operators that lead to qualitatively new effects and that motivate new analyses with future Drell-Yan data.
