Truncation orders, external constraints, and the determination of
Eric Persson, Florian Bernlochner
We present a model selection framework for the extraction of the CKM matrix element from exclusive decays. By framing the truncation of the Boyd-Grinstei…

Cover Your Bases: Asymptotic Distributions of the Profile Likelihood Ratio When Constraining Effective Field Theories in High-Energy Physics
Florian U. Bernlochner, Daniel C. Fry, Stephen B. Menary +1
We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the profile likelihood ratio (PLR) when constraining effective field theories (EFTs) and show that Wilks' theorem is often violated, m…
