Abstract
We obtain the bounds on all the gauge invariant, flavour symmetric, CP-even operators of dimension 6 that can affect the electroweak precision tests. For the preferred Higgs mass of about 100GeV, their minimal scales range from 2 to 10 TeV. Depending on the individual operator, these limits are often significantly stronger than those quoted in the literature, when they exist at all. The impact, if any, of these bounds on the upper limit con the Higgs mass itself is discussed. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.File in questo prodotto:
