Résumé	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.	The Matrix Element Method (MEM) is a powerful analysis technique that leverages quantum field theory amplitudes to extract maximum physics information from individual events. By comparing observed detector signatures to predictions from matrix elements, MEM provides unbiased, model-independent measurements with excellent theoretical precision and sensitivity to new physics.
