In the absence of direct evidence for new physics, Effective Field Theories (EFTs) serve as powerful tools for exploring potential new physics. As the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) continues to gather data, the importance of precision physics becomes increasingly clear. By focusing on the high-energy parameter space of correlated bosonic processes, we will demonstrate that certain blind...
The increasing precision of LHC measurements demands equally precise theoretical predictions. I will discuss one direction in which much fruitful progress has been made recently, namely the matching of NNLO calculations to parton shower programs. I will present results for colour-singlet production obtained using the GENEVA method for matching, and detail the path towards the simulation of...
In the framework of the two Higgs doublet Model (2HDM) type-1, we investigate the scope of the LHC in accessing the process H→hh→bbττ by performing a Monte Carlo (MC) analysis aimed at extracting this signal from the SM backgrounds, in the presence of a dedicated trigger choice and kinematical selection. We prove that some sensitivity to such a channel exists already at Run 3 of the LHC while...
We present a comprehensive analysis of electroweak, flavor, and collider bounds on the complete set of dimension-six SMEFT operators in the U(2)5-symmetric limit. This operator basis provides a consistent framework to describe a wide class of new physics models and, in particular, the motivated class of models where the new degrees of freedom couple mostly to the third generation. By analyzing...
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation neutrino experiment that will consist of a near detector (ND) complex placed at Fermilab, several hundred meters downstream of the neutrino production point, and a larger far detector (FD) to be built in the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF), approximately 1300 km away. DUNE will record neutrino interactions from...
