Abstract

LHC Run-1 and Run-2 were mainly devoted to probing the SM predictions on the Higgs processes with signal strength measurements that exploit at best the experimental sensitivity, as in the \(VH(H \rightarrow b\bar{b})\) analysis discussed in Chap. 7. On the other hand, as the experimental measurements have become more precise, phenomenological searches for deviations from the SM predictions have been enabled. This kind of measurement requires the definition of a common framework where these deviations can be computed precisely and in a fashion that is as independent of the theory as possible [1].
