A Heavy Higgs Can Give Strong First Order Electroweak Phase Transition in the Standard Model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

The role of Higgs sector of the standard model in first order phase transition is reexamined.It is found that a solution to the mass gap equations exist which can be used in higher orders. This possible solution leads to a transition which is found to be strongly first order and the ratio of the critical scaler field and the critical temperature is about 1.2 for a Higgs of mass around 400 GeV.This can explain baryogenesis.
