We compute the pressure of the standard model at high temperatures in the symmetric phase to three loops, or to O(g^5) in all coupling constants. We find that the terms of the perturbative expansion in the SU(2) + Higgs sector decrease…
The Standard Cosmological Model assumes that the Universe is, on average, homogeneous and isotropic for large scales (z>1), but this principle has been questioned from the results about Cosmic Microwave Background. This radiation has…
The classical evolution equations of the Abelian Higgs model are studied at temperatures below the Ginsburg temperature of a phase transition which is assumed to be second order. It is shown that the initial thermal fluctuations provide a…
We discuss the evolution of the Universe from what might be called its quantum origin. We apply the uncertainty principle to the origin of the Universe with characteristic time scale equal to the Planck time to obtain its initial…
Phase transitions induced by high temperatures and strong magnetic fields are investigated in the Standard model. The consistent effective potential including the one-loop and ring diagram contributions is calculated and investigated for…
The properties of elementary particles and their interactions at different stages of the evolution of the Universe, starting with the Planck energy $ 10 ^{19} $ GeV, are presented. We assume that the Standard Model gauge group becomes…
A cosmological first order electroweak phase transition could explain the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. Such a phase transition does not occur in the Standard Model, while it becomes possible with the existence…
The standard inflationary model presents a simple scenario within which the homogeneity, isotropy and flatness of the universe appear as natural outcomes and, in addition, fluctuations in the energy density are originated during the…
We discuss several general aspects of the free energy of the standard model at high temperatures. In particular the Clausius-Clapeyron equation is shown to yield a relation between the latent heat and the jump in the order parameter. The…
Proceeding from a homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann universe a conceptional problem concerning light propagation in an expanding universe is brought up. As a possible solution of this problem it is suggested that light waves do not scale…
We present a model of Cosmological Electroweak Symmetry Breaking (CEWSB), where a Higgs-like field and a cosmological background of weak boson gauge fields interact with gravity to realize the epoch of cosmic inflation, which is then…
A model is presented where the quintessence parameter, w, is related to a time-varying gravitational constant. Assuming a present value of w equals -.98, we predict a current variation of G dot/G = -.06 H0. H0 is Hubbles parameter, G is…
We propose a cosmological scenario which describes the evolution history of the universe based on the particle creation and holographic equipartition. The model attempts to solve the inflation of the early universe and the accelerated…
A possible solution to the observed baryon asymmetry in the universe is described, based on the physics of the standard model of electroweak interactions. At temperatures high enough electroweak physics provides violation of baryon number,…
An emergent gravity metric incorporating $k-$essence scalar fields $\phi$ having a Born-Infeld type lagrangian is mapped into a metric whose structure is similar to that of a blackhole of large mass $M$ that has swallowed a global monopole.…
We assume the validity of the Standard Model up to an arbitrary high-energy scale and discuss what information on the early stages of the Universe can be extracted from a measurement of the Higgs mass. For Mh < 130 GeV, the Higgs potential…
A cosmological model based on holographic scenarios is formulated in a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe. To formulate this model, the cosmological horizon is assumed to have a general entropy and a general temperature (including…
We study the finite-temperature electroweak phase transition by numerical simulations of the four-dimensional SU(2)-Higgs model on anisotropic lattices with temporal extension $L_t=2$. The physically interesting parameter region of Higgs…
The commonly assumed cosmological history of our universe is that at early-times and high-temperatures the universe went through an ElectroWeak Phase Transition (EWPT). Assuming an EWPT, and depending on its strength, there are many…
Based on recent perturbative and non-perturbative lattice calculations with almost quark flavors and the thermal contributions from photons, neutrinos, leptons, electroweak particles, and scalar Higgs bosons, various thermodynamic…
