Description
I present constraints derived in a consistent and conservative way on the Wilson coefficients of the SMEFT from dilepton data at Tevatron and the LHC, and present the calculation of loop-level matching needed to utilize flavor data to constrain flavor-blind SMEFT effects. These are important new sources of constraint that will ultimately feed in to a global analysis of generic, model-independent heavy new physics based on the totality of data available in particle physics, a promising modern-day update to the LEP ElectroWeak Working Group efforts.
