Constraining Gluonic-Quartic Gauge Coupling Operators with gg yy

PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS

Based on "1802.02416[hep-ph]"


Gluon-gluon to photon-photon scattering gg yy offers to the LHC experiments a uniquely powerful probe of dimension-8 operators in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) that are quadratic in both the electromagnetic and gluonic field-strength tensors, such as would appear in the Born-Infeld extension of the Standard Model (SM). We use 13-TeV ATLAS data on the production of isolated photon pairs to set lower limits on the scales of dimension-8 operators M & 1 TeV, and discuss the prospective sensitivities of possible future hadron colliders.
