Abstract |
It is possible that measurements of vector boson scattering (VBS) processes at the LHC will
reveal disagreement with Standard Model predictions, but no new particles will be observed
directly. The task is then to learn as much as possible about the new physics from a VBS
analysis carried within the framework of the Effective Field Theory (EFT). I will discuss issues
related to the correct usage of the EFT when the WW invariant mass is not directly accessible
experimentally, as in purely leptonic W decay channels. The strategies for future data analyses
in case such scenario indeed occurs will also be proposed. |
