The standard electroweak model is extended by means of a second Brout-Englert-Higgs-doublet. The symmetry breaking potential is chosen is such a way that (i) the Lagrangian possesses a custodial symmetry, (ii) a static, spherically…
We study the electroweak baryogenesis in the framework of the effective field theory. Our study shows that by introducing a light singlet scalar particle and a dimension-5 operator, it can provide the strong first order phase transition and…

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…
We study theories which naturally select a vacuum with parametrically small Electroweak Scale due to finite temperature effects in the early universe. In particular, there is a scalar with an approximate shift symmetry broken by a…
Electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG) offers a compelling narrative for the generation of the baryon asymmetry, however it cannot be realised in the Standard Model, and leads to severe experimental tensions in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard…
The presently observed cosmological baryon asymmetry has been finally determined at the time of the electroweak phase transition, when baryon and lepton number violating interactions fell out of thermal equilibrium. We discuss the…
The possibility of creating baryon asymmetry at the electroweak phase transition in the minimal supersymmetric standard model is considered for the case when right-handed squarks are much lighter than left-handed ones. It is shown that the…
Electroweak baryogenesis is an attractive mechanism to generate the baryon asymmetry of the Universe via a strong first order electroweak phase transition. We compare the phase transition patterns suggested by the vacuum structure at the…
While an additional scalar multiplet over and above the Standard Model can lead to a strong electroweak phase transition, depending on its quantum numbers, it also potentially confronts crucial constraints from theory and experiments.…
Electroweak symmetry non-restoration up to high temperatures well above the electroweak scale offers new alternatives for baryogenesis. We propose a new approach for electroweak symmetry non-restoration via an inert Higgs sector that…

The effective potential at finite temperature is constructed within the minimal standard model when a real Higgs singlet is added on. We find that a region of parameter space exists for which one can find a first order transition strong…
