We calculate the spectrum of gravitational waves originated from strongly first order electroweak phase transition in the extended Higgs model with a real singlet field. In order to calculate the bubble nucleation rate, we perform a…
Without going to the details, I give a short, qualitative and historical description of the development of the Standard Model, from quantum electrodynamics, further through quantum chromodynamics, then to weak interactions with parity- and…
Bubbles in a first-order electroweak phase transition are nucleated with radii $R_0$ and expand with velocity $v$. If $v$ is subsonic, a bubble becomes unstable to non-spherical perturbations when its radius is roughly $10^4\, R_0$. These…
We derive the kinetic equation for fermions and antifermions interacting with a planar Higgs bubble wall during the electroweak phase transition using the `evenisation' procedure and the Wigner formalism for a Lagrangian with the phase of…
We present a novel scenario for baryogenesis in a hybrid inflation model at the electroweak scale, in which the Standard Model Higgs field triggers the end of inflation. One of the conditions for successful baryogenesis, the departure from…
The electroweak phase transition is considered in framework of the reduced minimal 3-3-1 model (RM331). Structure of phase transition in this model is divided into two periods. The first period is the phase transition SU(3) ---> SU(2) at…
The sphaleron type solution in the electroweak theory, generalized to include the dilaton field, is examined. The solutions describe both the variarions of Higgs and Gauge fields inside the sphaleron and the shape of the dilaton cloud…
The electroweak phase transition provides the most attractive framework to account for the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Comparing results of perturbative and nonperturbative studies is not straightforward, however, due to the different…
In this thesis two signals pointing beyond the Standard Model are discussed. The first signal is the presence of baryonic matter around us. The possibility of baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) was studied. The…
Spontaneously broken symmetries in particle physics may have produced several phase transitions in cosmology, e.g., at the GUT energy scale (~10^15 GeV), resulting in a quasi-de Sitter inflationary expansion, solving the background…
In the electroweak phase transition there arises the problem of baryon number washout by sphaleron transitions, which can be avoided if the phase transition is strongly enough first order. The phase transition in the Standard Model or in…
We study a scenario in which the baryon asymmetry of the universe arises from a cosmological phase transition where lepton-number is spontaneously broken. If the phase transition is first order, a lepton-number asymmetry can arise at the…
We propose a new scenario of the electroweak baryogenesis based on the properties of electroweak domain walls surrounding black holes in the Higgs phase vacuum of the extended Standard Model with 2-Higgs doublets. It is shown that there…
The phase transition in the Weinberg-Salam-Glashow (GSW) electroweak theory extended by the majoron and dilaton field is considered. The possibility of the boson condensation in the extreme conditions in the standard electroweak theory is…
With the assistance of a complex singlet, and an effective operator involving CP violations, the dark matter relic abundance and baryon asymmetry of the universe have been addressed simul- taneously. We studied the electroweak baryogenesis…
The conventional baryogenesis mechanism is based on the one Higgs doublet within the standard model, at the electroweak scale $T\sim 100 GeV$. In this model the strong first order phase transition due to the spontaneous symmetry breaking…
We study the possibility of relaxing the cosmological bound on the Higgs mass coming from the requirement of non-erasure of the baryon asymmetry by sphalerons. After reviewing the Standard Model case we obtain this bound in two extensions…
This study investigates the electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG) in the real singlet extension of the Standard Model (SM), including dimension-six operators, which couple the Higgs boson to a real singlet scalar field. We show that the…
We present a complete treatment of the diffusion processes for supersymmetric electroweak baryogenesis that characterizes transport dynamics ahead of the phase transition bubble wall within the symmetric phase. In particular, we generalize…
Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis is an attempt to explain the cosmological baryon asymmetry using only a minimal extension of the Standard Model. The relevant processes take place out of thermal equilibrium and are non-perturbative, and so…
