First order phase transitions in the early universe naturally lead to the production of a stochastic background of gravitational waves and to the generation of a matter-antimatter asymmetry. The dynamics of the phase transition is affected…

We study the observable implications of an incomplete first order phase transition during inflation. In such a phase transition, the nucleated bubbles do not percolate and instead are continuously produced until the onset of reheating. The…

We investigate the gravitational wave spectrum resulted from the cosmological first-order phase transition. We compare two models; one is a scalar field model without gravitation, while the other is a scalar field model with gravitation.…
