Precision physics with W and Z bosons: vector boson scattering, effective field theory, luminosity Ghent University
Despite its large success in describing a wide range of results obtained at human-built experiments, the standard model (SM) of particle physics is known to be incomplete, and thus the quest for new physics beyond the SM (BSM) is ongoing. A crucial tool is the precision measurement of SM properties to constrain small deviations from SM predictions that could hint at BSM physics at much larger energy scales. In this project, the vector boson ...
