Effective field theory of electroweak symmetry breaking: Concepts and applications

该项目的目标是使用有效场论（EFT）方法解决电弱对称性破缺的物理学和希格斯玻色子的性质。重点放在包含轻希格斯玻色子的电弱手征拉格朗日量作为低能（电弱尺度）有效理论上。特别是，我们阐述了这个框架的动机，它的概念基础，以及与其他EFT制剂的关系。我们计算高阶效应，并开发这种方法的唯象应用，特别是在欧洲核子研究中心大型强子对撞机（LHC）的物理。

The goal of this project is to address the physics of electroweak symmetry breaking and theproperties of the Higgs boson using effective field theory (EFT) methods. The main emphasisis on the electroweak chiral Lagrangian including a light Higgs boson (EWChL) as the low-energy (electroweak-scale) effective theory. In particular, we elaborate on the motivation for this framework, its conceptual basis, and the relation to other EFT formulations. We compute higher-order effects and develop the phenomenological application of this approach, especially for the physics at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
