 Effective field theory

Effective field theory (EFT) is a framework in theoretical physics used to describe physical systems at specific energy scales while accounting for the effects of higher energy processes in a systematic way. The main idea behind EFT is that, at a given energy scale, we can ignore the details of physics that occurs at much higher energy scales, focusing instead on the degrees of freedom and interactions relevant to the low-energy behavior of the system.

But in particular, we want to describe those subtheories in a way that we can reach arbitrary precision of the full theory if desired.
