Lattice QCD Inputs for BSM Searches

I will give an overview of recent progress in lattice QCD studies relevant to searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. In the precision era of lattice QCD for single-hadron systems, calculations with complete systematic control are playing an important role in precision tests of the Standard Model; I will discuss examples including tensions in heavy flavour physics, the recent lattice QCD calculations of key contributions to muon g-2, and determinations of the quark masses and strong coupling which complement experimental studies at the LHC. In contrast to the precision of lattice QCD for single hadron systems, for light nuclear systems we are in the very early era of first reliable lattice QCD calculations. As a result, there is also an important and emerging role for lattice QCD in the interpretation of low-energy precision experiments. In this arena, I will outline how the interplay of lattice QCD with effective field theories is providing improved predictions with impact spanning from neutrino physics experiments to direct searches for dark matter.
