| Abstract: Energy correlators provide a powerful tool for studying QCD dynamics and QFT more broadly. On one hand, they offer a clean field-theoretical framework, being infrared safe and precisely calculable in perturbation theory, which makes them ideal probes of the Standard Model (SM) at colliders. On the other hand, energy correlators constitute a general class of observables that can capture the dynamics of more general QFTs, even in the absence of an S-matrix, such as in conformal field theories. In this talk, I will highlight the potential of energy correlators as probes of new physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM), particularly in scenarios where the BSM sector is nearly conformal and thus difficult to describe using conventional techniques. | |
