Project description

SMEFiT is a Python package for global analyses of particle physics data in the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). The SMEFT represents a powerful model-independent framework to constrain, identify, and parametrize potential deviations with respect to the predictions of the Standard Model (SM). A particularly attractive feature of the SMEFT is its capability to systematically correlate deviations from the SM between different processes. The full exploitation of the SMEFT potential for indirect New Physics searches from precision measurements requires combining the information provided by the broadest possible dataset, namely carrying out extensive global analysis which is the main purpose of SMEFiT.

The SMEFiT framework has been used in the following scientific publications:

  • A Monte Carlo global analysis of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory: the top quark sector, N. P. Hartland, F. Maltoni, E. R. Nocera, J. Rojo, E. Slade, E. Vryonidou, C. Zhang [HMN+19].

  • Constraining the SMEFT with Bayesian reweighting, S. van Beek, E. R. Nocera, J. Rojo, and E. Slade [vBNRS19].

  • SMEFT analysis of vector boson scattering and diboson data from the LHC Run II , J. Ethier, R. Gomez-Ambrosio, G. Magni, J. Rojo [EGAMR21].

  • Combined SMEFT interpretation of Higgs, diboson, and top quark data from the LHC, J. Ethier, G.Magni, F. Maltoni, L. Mantani, E. R. Nocera, J. Rojo, E. Slade, E. Vryonidou, C. Zhang [EMM+21].

  • The automation of SMEFT-assisted constraints on UV-complete models, J. ter Hoeve, G. Magni, J. Rojo, A. N. Rossia, E. Vryonidou [tHMR+23].

  • Mapping the SMEFT at High-Energy Colliders: from LEP and the (HL-)LHC to the FCC-ee, E.Celada, T. Giani, J. ter Hoeve, L. Mantani, J. Rojo, A. N. Rossia, M. O. A. Thomas, E. Vryonidou [CGtH+24].

Results from these publications, including driver and analysis scripts, are available in the Previous studies section.
