We study the effects of dimension-8 operators on Drell-Yan production of lepton pairs at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We identify a class of operators that leads to novel angular dependence not accounted for in current analyses. The observation of such effects would be a smoking-gun signature of new physics appearing at the dimension-8 level. We propose an extension of the currently used angular basis and show that these effects should be observable in future LHC analyses for realistic values of the associated dimension-8 Wilson coefficients.

  1. EFT Validity and Truncation Uncertainty from few Nuisance Parameters

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0

    SMEFT truncation uncertainty at O(Λ^{-4}) can be modeled by K≪N representative Wilson coefficients plus a decorrelated α=√2 PCA prior that covers full next-order effects in DY, Zh, and VBF.

  2. $D$-Dimensional Modular Assembly of Higher-Derivative Four-Point Contact Amplitudes Involving Fermions

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A modular assembly method constructs D-dimensional higher-derivative four-point amplitudes involving fermions from gauge-invariant blocks, color factors, and permutation-invariant scalar polynomials.

  3. Constraining dimension-6 SMEFT with higher-order predictions for $p p \to t W$

    hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Higher-order QCD predictions for pp to tW enable three-parameter SMEFT fits that constrain effective new-physics scales to 0.5–2 TeV using LHC Run II and III data.

  4. USMEFT as a tool for discovery of universal new physics at high luminosity LHC

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Universal SMEFT fits to pseudo-data from neutral and charged Drell-Yan processes at HL-LHC can detect universal new physics and extract its properties stably across EFT truncation orders.
