Effective operators in top physics Aguilar Saavedra, Juan Antonio Standard model Operators Top quark 35th International Conference of High Energy Physics. July 22-28, 2010, Paris (France). PoS(ICHEP 2010)378. Top interactions beyond the Standard Model can be conveniently described in the framework of gauge-invariant effective operators. We briefly review the general form of the fermion-fermiongauge boson and fermion-fermion-Higgs interactions arising from dimension-6 operators, focusing on the top quark. We discuss in detail an expansion in powers of 1/L2, where L is the new physics scale, to consistently calculate observables in terms of top anomalous couplings. 2014-02-26T13:06:13Z 2014-02-26T13:06:13Z 2010 journal article Aguilar-Saavedra, J.A.; Effective operators in top physics.
