EFT for Neutrino Oscillations: Theory Developments and Application to JUNO

Martín González-Alonso, Ajdin Palavrić, Suraj Prakash

We contribute to the systematic analysis of New Physics effects in neutrino experiments using Effective Field Theory (EFT) methods. We review and extend the quantum field-theoretic…

The KSVZ Atlas: A Unified SMEFT-ALP Framework

Ajdin Palavrić, Xavier Ponce Díaz, Hector Tiblom

We develop a general framework for matching KSVZ-like ultraviolet completions featuring vector-like fermions and a spontaneously broken symmetry onto…

EFT Pathways to : Chiral Constructions and Phenomenology

Arnau Bas i Beneito, Ajdin Palavrić, Andrea Sainaghi

We develop a systematic effective field theory framework for studying interactions across energy scales. Using chiral symmetry, we construct the complete and non-redundant…

Implications of Flavor Symmetries for Baryon Number Violation

Arnau Bas i Beneito, Ajdin Palavrić, Andrea Sainaghi

In the Standard Model, baryon number is an accidental symmetry, whose violation would constitute unambiguous evidence of new physics, with proton decay providing its most prominent…

Minimal Flavor Protection for TeV-scale New Physics

Admir Greljo, Ajdin Palavrić, Ben A. Stefanek

We determine how much TeV-scale new physics can deviate from flavor universality, , while respecting stringent bounds on flavor-changing neutral currents. The minimal conti…

Expanding the Landscape of Exotic Muon Decays

Admir Greljo, Ajdin Palavrić, Mirsad Tunja +1

We chart new-physics models that produce exotic, high-multiplicity muon decays featuring prompt or displaced pairs and/or photons, with or without missing energy, such as…

UV origins of CP-violating leptonic Yukawa couplings

Nejc Košnik, Ajdin Palavrić, Aleks Smolkovič

Probing the CP nature of the Higgs Yukawa couplings is a promising avenue for unraveling new physics effects. In this work, we investigate the possible single- and two-field UV ori…

Leptonic Flavor from Modular : UV Mediators and SMEFT Realizations

Adrián Moreno-Sánchez, Ajdin Palavrić

The absence of direct evidence for new physics at current collider energies motivates the study of indirect effects within the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theor…

A Guide to Functional Methods Beyond One-Loop Order

Javier Fuentes-Martín, Adrián Moreno-Sánchez, Ajdin Palavrić +1

Functional methods can be applied to the quantum effective action to efficiently determine counterterms and matching conditions for effective field theories. We extend the toolbox…

Discrete Leptonic Flavor Symmetries: UV Mediators and Phenomenology

Ajdin Palavrić

Given the absence of a definitive top-down indication for understanding the peculiar structure of the lepton sector, discrete flavor symmetries offer a profound perspective for exa…

Leading directions in the SMEFT: Renormalization Effects

Admir Greljo, Ajdin Palavrić, Aleks Smolkovič

The stability of the electroweak scale, challenged by the absence of deviations in flavor physics, prompts the consideration of SMEFT scenarios governed by approximate SM flavor sy…

Functional Matching and Renormalization Group Equations at Two-Loop Order

Javier Fuentes-Martín, Ajdin Palavrić, Anders Eller Thomsen

We present a systematic method for determining the two-loop effective Lagrangian resulting from integrating out a set of heavy particles in an ultraviolet scalar theory. We prove t…

Leading directions in the SMEFT

Admir Greljo, Ajdin Palavrić

Short-distance new physics at (or slightly) above the TeV scale should not excessively violate the approximate flavor symmetries of the SM in order to comply with stringent constra…

Adding Flavor to the SMEFT

Admir Greljo, Ajdin Palavrić, Anders Eller Thomsen

We study the flavor structure of the lepton and baryon number--conserving dimension-6 operators in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT). Building on the work of [1], w…

Constraints on subleading interactions in beta decay Lagrangian

Adam Falkowski, Martín González-Alonso, Ajdin Palavrić +1

We discuss the effective field theory (EFT) for nuclear beta decay. The general quark-level EFT describing charged-current interactions between quarks and leptons is matched to the…
