Sensitivity analysis of the top-quark sector
Abstract We study the sensitivity of current and future collider observables to top-quark SMEFT operators through a one-operator-at-a-time analysis. Using data from the Tevatron, LEP, and LHC Run 2, as well as projections for the HL-LHC and future lepton colliders, we identify the measurements that provide the strongest individual constraints. This approach clarifies the role of specific observables in the top-quark SMEFT program and highlights the significant improvement in sensitivity expected at future facilities.
