I will exhibit a class of effective field theories that have hierarchically small Wilson coefficients for operators that are not protected by symmetries but are not finely tuned. These theories possess bounded target…
I will discuss how causality can be used to place bounds on higher derivative corrections to Einstein Maxwell theory. Scattering probe photons off of charged shock waves, we obtain new constraints on the Wilson…
The discovery of the Higgs boson marked a cornerstone in particle physics, completing the Standard Model. Yet, its interactions, especially at high energies, offer a gateway to potential new physics. This talk…
The study of perturbations around black hole backgrounds in general relativity and Einstein-Maxwell theory has a long history, going back to Regge and Wheeler in the 1950s. In view of more recent developments in…
