Automating Predictions for Standard Model Effective Field Theory in MadGraph5_aMC@NLO

Abstract

Next-to-leading order event generation for the Standard Model effective field theory has started to become available in the MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework. In this talk we discuss some of the recent progresses in this direction, with a focus on the top-quark sector.
