Basis for Anomalous Quartic Gauge Couplings / Durieux, Gauthier (Louvain U., CP3) ; Remmen, Grant N. (New York U., CCPP) ; Rodd, Nicholas L. (UC, Berkeley) ; Éboli, O.J.P. (Sao Paulo U.) ; Gonzalez-Garcia, M.C. (Barcelona, Autonoma U.) ; Kondo, Dan (Tokyo U., IPMU) ; Murayama, Hitoshi (LBL, Berkeley ; UC, Berkeley ; Tokyo U., IPMU) ; Okabe, Risshin (Tokyo U., IPMU)
In this note, we give a definitive basis for the dimension-eight operators leading to quartic - but no cubic - interactions among electroweak gauge bosons. These are often called anomalous quartic gauge couplings, or aQGCs. [...]

LHC EFT WG Note: SMEFT predictions, event reweighting, and simulation / Schoefbeck, Robert (Austrian Academy of Sciences (AT)) ; Belvedere, Alberto (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DE)) ; Bhattacharya, Saptaparna (Wayne State University (US)) ; Chatterjee, Suman (Austrian Academy of Sciences (AT)) ; Calandri, Alessandro (ETH Zurich (CH)) ; Sanchez Cruz, Sergio (CERN) ; Dickinson, Jennet Elizabeth (Fermi National Accelerator Lab. (US)) ; Glessgen, Franz Jacob (ETH Zurich (CH)) ; Goldouzian, Reza (University of Notre Dame (US)) ; Grohsjean, Alexander (Hamburg University (DE)) et al.
This note gives an overview of the tools for predicting expectations in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT) at the tree level and one loop available through event generators. Methods of event reweighting, the separate simulation of squared matrix elements, and the simulation of the full SMEFT process are compared in terms of statistical efficacy and potential biases..

Towards a combination of LHC and TeVatron W-boson mass measurements
In this note methodological and modelling considerations towards a combination of the ATLAS, CDF and D0 measurements of the 𝑊-boson mass are discussed. As they were performed at different moments in time, each measurement employed different assumptions for the modelling of 𝑊-boson production and decay, as well as different fits of the parton distribution functions of the proton (PDFs). [...]

Combination of inclusive top-quark pair production cross-section measurements using ATLAS and CMS data at $\sqrt{s}= 7$ and 8 TeV / ATLAS Collaboration
A combination of measurements of the inclusive top-quark pair production cross-section performed by ATLAS and CMS in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV at the LHC is presented. The cross-sections are obtained using top-quark pair decays with an opposite-charge electron-muon pair in the final state and with data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 5 fb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=7$ TeV and about 20 fb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV for each experiment.

The LHC effective field theory working group gathers members of the LHC experiments and the theory community to provide a framework for the interpretation of LHC data in the context of EFT. In this note we discuss experimental observables and corresponding measurements in analysis of the Higgs, top, and electroweak data at the LHC [...]

Challenges in Monte Carlo event generator software for High-Luminosity LHC / HSF Physics Event Generator WG Collaboration
We review the main software and computing challenges for the Monte Carlo physics event generators used by the LHC experiments, in view of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) physics programme. This paper has been prepared by the HEP Software Foundation (HSF) Physics Event Generator Working Group as an input to the LHCC review of HL-LHC computing, which has started in May 2020..
