报告摘要：In light of a vanilla Higgs boson and no new physics beyond the Standard Model so far (up to 750 GeV), I shall motivate the effective field theory approach to characterising new physics beyond the Standard Model. After describing the phenomenology of this SM EFT, we show how matching calculations using functional methods provides an elegant way of making contact with an underlying theory. Interestingly, there is a universal structure to the one-loop result that has not been appreciated until recently. Finally, looking beyond this summer, we discuss two possible paths beyond the Standard Model depending on whether the tentative sign of a fundamentally new particle at 750 GeV is confirmed or not.
