Abstract

We present a very minimal model for baryogenesis by a dark first-order phase transition. It employs a new dark SU(2)DSU(2)_{D} gauge group with two doublet Higgs bosons, two lepton doublets, and two singlets. The singlets act as a neutrino portal that transfer the generated asymmetry to the Standard Model. The model predicts ΔNeff=0.090.13\Delta N_\text{eff} = 0.09-0.13 detectable by future experiments as well as possible signals from exotic decays of the Higgs and ZZ bosons and stochastic gravitational waves.
