Combined effective field theory interpretation of Higgs boson, electroweak vector boson, top quark, and multi-jet measurements
Abstract: Constraints on the Wilson coefficients (WCs) corresponding to dimension-six operators of the standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) are determined from a simultaneous fit to seven sets of CMS measurements probing Higgs boson, electroweak vector boson, top quark, and multi-jet production. The measurements of the electroweak precision observables at LEP and SLC are also included and provide complementary constraints to those from CMS. The CMS measurements, using 36-138 fb$ ^{-1} $ of LHC proton-proton collision data at $ \sqrt{s}= $ 13 TeV, are chosen to provide sensitivity to a broad set of operators, for which consistent SMEFT predictions can be derived. These are primarily measurements of differential cross sections or, in the case of Higgs boson production, simplified template cross sections, which are subsequently parametrized in the WCs. Measurements targeting $ \mathrm{t\bar{t}X} $ production model the SMEFT effects directly in the reconstructed observables. Individual constraints on 64 WCs, and constraints on 42 linear combinations of WCs, are obtained. In the case of the linear combinations, the 42 parameters are varied simultaneously.

Summary
A combined effective field theory interpretation of CMS data has been presented. This interpretation is based on a simultaneous fit of seven sets of CMS measurements that probe Higgs boson, electroweak vector boson, top quark, and multi-jet production, and also incorporates electroweak precision observable measurements from LEP and SLC. These input measurements were chosen to obtain sensitivity to a broad set of SMEFT operators. Out of 129 operators in the effective field theory basis considered in this note, the combined interpretation constrains 64 Wilson coefficients (WCs) individually. Simultaneous constraints were set on 42 linear combinations of WCs. The 95% confidence intervals range from around $ \pm $ 0.002 to $ \pm $ 10 for the constraints on the linear combinations of WCs, while for the individual WCs the constraints range from $ \pm $ 0.003 to $ \pm $ 20. These constraints are also translated into lower limits on the probed energy scale of new physics $ \Lambda $, for given values of the WCs. This combined interpretation yields improved constraints with respect to single-analysis results from CMS, for example for $ c_{\mathrm{W}} $. In the fit that constrains the linear combination of WCs, The p-value for the compatibility with the SM is found to be 1.7%.
