Speaker

Description

Over the past years, the interpretation of measurements in the context of effective field theories
has attracted much attention in the field of particle physics. In this poster, the EFTfitter is
presented, a tool for interpreting sets of measurements in such models using a Bayesian ansatz by
calculating the posterior probabilities of the corresponding free parameters numerically. An example
is given, in which top-quark measurements are used to constrain anomalous couplings at the $Wtb$-vertex.
