Geometric aspects of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory at one loop

Supervisors: Tyler Corbett, André H. Hoang

Abstract:

Over the last few years a new approach to understanding indirect evidence of novel particle phenomena has developed using geometric techniques and the quantum field theoretic method of effective field theories. We will develop the one-loop two-point functions of the particles of the Standard Model in this formalism. For context - two-point functions are the functions that describe the motion of a particle from one point in space time to another, and one-loop calculations are the subleading corrections in the perturbative expansion of the Standard Model.
