Description

The discovery of the Higgs boson allows us to test the standard model at a new level. Ongoing and near future experiments on precision Higgs and EW observables requires a theory for SM deviations. While the kappa framework has been successful as a first attempt, a more consistent theory is required as one moves beyond leading order. In this talk I will summarize recent progress in the Higgs effective field theory framework, and discuss its future prospects.
