Effective Field Theory
Effective Field Theory (EFT) is a general framework for studying physics at low energies in terms of the relevant degrees of freedom, without requiring complete knowledge of high-energy physics. By expanding in powers of energy, EFT provides model-independent parameterizations of new physics effects and systematic methods for computing precision predictions of the Standard Model.
