Title: EFT triangles in the same-sign WW scattering process at the HL-LHC and HE-LHC

Abstract

We investigate the Beyond Standard Model discovery potential in the framework of the Effective Field Theory (EFT) for the same-sign $WW$ scattering process in purely leptonic $$W$$ decay modes at the High-Luminosity and High-Energy phases of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The commonly applied procedure of studying the $WWWW$ quartic coupling by testing dimension-8 operators of the EFT one at a time is used in this work. In the considered process there is no experimental handle on the $WW$ invariant mass, and it has previously been shown that the discovery potential at 14 TeV is rather slim. In this paper we report the results calculated for a 27 TeV machine and compare them with the discovery potential obtained at 14 TeV. We find that while the respective discovery regions shift to lower values of the Wilson coefficients, the overall discovery potential of this procedure does not get significantly larger with a higher beam energy.
