摘要

We analyze how NA64μ can contribute to the global SMEFT program demonstrating that it can probe two effective four-lepton operators completely unbounded so far and break one of the current flat directions. Furthermore, we also study an extension of SMEFT that includes fermion singlets of the SM gauge group in the low energy field content. This effective field theory, usually dubbed νSMEFT, is well motivated by the observation of light neutrino masses and leptonic mixing. We find that NA64μ can constrain three unbounded four-fermion operators of the νSMEFT. We derive the current bounds on these operators and compute the future sensitivity.
