Introductions to SMEFT and HEFT - Lecture 2
Delve into the second lecture on Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) and Higgs Effective Field Theory (HEFT) presented by Timothy Cohen. This 1-hour and 10-minute talk, part of the School for Advanced Topics in Particle Physics (SATPP) at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, explores essential concepts in effective field theories. Gain insights into systematic approaches for describing physics at different scales using relevant degrees of freedom. Expand your understanding of how these theories apply to both high-energy and low-energy phenomena, from TeV-scale physics to meson and baryon observables. Benefit from this advanced-level presentation designed for postdoctoral fellows and mature PhD students in theoretical particle physics, providing both conceptual understanding and technical tools for critical analysis.
