Description

The absence of new particle discoveries at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) underscores the urgency of exploring the Standard Model with unprecedented precision at the electroweak scale.  

With the upcoming high-luminosity phase, the LHC will achieve remarkable precision in key measurements, offering an unparalleled window into fundamental interactions—particularly the Higgs boson.  Interpreting these measurements requires theoretical predictions that match the LHC’s precision.  In this talk, I will discuss the current frontier of precision calculations, the key challenges that limit our ability to fully exploit the LHC’s phenomenology program, and the strategies we are developing to overcome them.
