Quantum entanglement and top spin correlations in SMEFT at higher orders

Claudio Severi et al.

Summary: This study presents the analysis of top spin polarizations, t (t) over bar spin correlations, and t (t) over bar spin entanglement at the LHC using the Standard Model Effective Field Theory beyond Leading Order QCD accuracy. The study identifies the complete set of independent dimension-6 operators involved in t (t) over bar production and extracts their effects on top spin observables at linear and quadratic order. The results show that including higher orders leads to notable numerical differences and deviations from the SM appear mainly at large top pT, advocating for differential or doubly-differential measurement of spin observables in the t (t) over bar phase-space. The study also demonstrates how incorporating present and future top spin measurements improves global fits to top LHC data.

Unbinned multivariate observables for global SMEFT analyses from machine learning

Raquel Gomez Ambrosio et al.

Summary: In this work, we develop a flexible open source framework, ML4EFT, to integrate unbinned multivariate observables into global SMEFT fits, thus enhancing the sensitivity to the theory parameters. We combine machine learning regression and classification techniques to parameterize high-dimensional likelihood ratios and estimate methodological uncertainties using the Monte Carlo replica method. We demonstrate the impact of unbinned multivariate observables on the SMEFT parameter space and study the improved constraints associated with multivariate inputs.

Simultaneous CTEQ-TEA extraction of PDFs and SMEFT parameters from jet and t(t)over-bar data

Jun Gao et al.

Summary: Recasting phenomenological Lagrangians in terms of SM effective field theory (SMEFT) allows for the connection between potential BSM physics at high energies and experimental signatures at lower energies. This study extends the CT18 global analysis framework to jointly fit the Wilson coefficients of SMEFT operators and the parton distribution functions (PDFs), providing consistent constraints on possible BSM physics effects. The use of machine-learning techniques, such as neural networks, enhances the efficiency of the global fits in scanning the full PDF+SMEFT parameter space.

SMEFiT: a flexible toolbox for global interpretations of particle physics data with effective field theories

Tommaso Giani et al.

Summary: The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) is a robust framework for interpreting experimental measurements without making assumptions about the underlying UV-complete theory. In this study, the Python open source SMEFiT framework is introduced for parameter inference and global analysis of particle physics data in the SMEFT. SMEFiT allows for inference problems with a large number of EFT degrees of freedom, unrestricted functional dependence in the fitted observables, inclusion of UV-inspired restrictions in the parameter space, and arbitrary rotations between operator bases. Posterior distributions are determined using Nested Sampling and Monte Carlo optimization. SMEFiT provides documentation, tutorials, and post-analysis reporting tools and can be used for state-of-the-art EFT fits of Higgs, top quark, and electroweak production data. The results of the recent ATLAS EFT interpretation of Higgs and electroweak data from Run II are reproduced to illustrate the functionalities, showing that equivalent results are obtained in two different operator bases.

Single top production in association with a WZ pair at the LHC in the SMEFT

Hesham El Faham et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the production of single top quark in association with a WZ pair at the LHC, considering both the Standard Model (SM) and the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). Compared to other electroweak top production processes, tWZ has the advantage of being sensitive to unitarity-violating behavior induced in its 2 -> 2 sub-amplitudes through modified electroweak interactions. The study presents reliable results for total and differential cross sections for tWZ at 13TeV, including the relevant dimension-6 operators.

Top-pair production at the LHC with MINNLOPS

Javier Mazzitelli et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the production of a pair of heavy quarks and introduces the MINNLOPS method to match NNLO calculations with parton showers. An event generator is constructed and its implementation details in a parton shower Monte Carlo framework are discussed. The results show that including the tree-level decays of the top quarks and spin-correlation effects, the simulated data fit well with the experimental measurements.

A new generation of simultaneous fits to LHC data using deep learning

Shayan Iranipour et al.

Summary: This study presents a new methodology that allows for the simultaneous determination of the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) of the proton and any parameters that determine theoretical predictions. The methodology is based on an extension of the NNPDF4.0 neural network architecture, which enables the determination of multiple parameters simultaneously. The study demonstrates the capabilities of this methodology by fitting PDFs with a subset of Wilson coefficients within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework, and shows its potential for extension to other precision parameters in the standard model.

Machine learning of log-likelihood functions in global analysis of parton distributions

DianYu Liu et al.

Summary: This study proposes the use of neural networks and machine learning techniques to model the profile of log-likelihood functions or cross sections in multi-dimensional parameter space, aiming to improve the efficiency of analysis on parton distribution functions (PDFs). The results demonstrate that this new approach can more accurately estimate the uncertainties of PDFs when dealing with a large number of experimental data points and multi-dimensional parameter spaces, and can also be used to constrain physics beyond the Standard Model.

Summary: This study utilizes quantum information observables to probe the structure of fundamental interactions and search for new high energy physics. By investigating the effects of higher-dimensional operators in the Standard Model effective field theory on the Standard Model expectations, we find that higher-dimensional effects decrease the entanglement predicted in the Standard Model.

Regularising experimental correlations in LHC data: theory and application to a global analysis of parton distributions

Zahari Kassabov et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates how an inaccurate determination of experimental uncertainty correlations in high-precision LHC measurements can affect the reliability of the associated chi(2) results. A regularization procedure is proposed to increase the stability of chi(2) by minimizing alterations to the covariance matrix of the measurements. Applying this procedure to the NNPDF4.0 global analysis of parton distribution functions utilizing numerous LHC measurements, it is found that the regularized chi(2) of the NNPDF4.0 determination is reduced by about 3 standard deviations without significantly altering the resulting PDFs upon refitting.

Combined SMEFT interpretation of Higgs, diboson, and top quark data from the LHC

Jacob J. Ethier et al.

Summary: In this study, a global interpretation of Higgs, diboson, and top quark measurements at the LHC was presented within the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) at dimension six. By constraining 36 independent directions in the parameter space, and incorporating both linear and quadratic corrections, the study demonstrated the importance of including NLO QCD and O (Lambda(-4)) effects for accurately mapping the posterior distributions associated with the fitted Wilson coefficients. The results highlight the interplay and complementarity between top quark, Higgs, and diboson measurements, and pave the way for more global SMEFT interpretations extended to other high-p(T) processes and low-energy observables.

Testing parton distribution functions with t-channel single-top-quark production

John Campbell et al.

Summary: The production of single top-quarks in the t-channel imposes strong analytic constraints on parton distribution functions, providing novel consistency checks between different-order PDF fits and highlighting the incomplete handling of systematic uncertainties related to the b-quark mass. The b-quark mass uncertainty is identified as the dominant but overlooked theory uncertainty for this process.
