One possible way in which phase transitions in the early universe may have ocurred is via nucleation of bubbles of the new phase (true vacuum) in the old phase (false vacuum). The technique most widely used to compute the probability of…
We study the electroweak phase transition in a supersymmetric version of the Standard Model, in which a gauge singlet superfield is added to the Higgs sector. We show that the order of the transition is determined by the trilinear soft…
