This paper is a slightly modified version of the introductory part of a PhD thesis, also containing the articles hep-ph/0303019, hep-ph/0510375 and hep-ph/0512177. We provide a short history of the research of electroweak thermodynamics and…
Precision measurements of electroweak observables provide stringent tests of the Standard Model structure and an accurate determination of its parameters. A brief overview of the present experimental status is presented. A more extensive…
The electroweak phase transition is investigated by means of the perturbatively calculated high temperature effective potential. An analytic result to order $g^4,\lambda^2$ is presented for the Abelian Higgs model, the SU(2)-Higgs model and…
Electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG) remains a theoretically attractive and experimentally testable scenario for explaining the cosmic baryon asymmetry. We review recent progress in computations of the baryon asymmetry within this framework and…
Work on electroweak precision calculations and event generators for electroweak physics studies at current and future colliders is summarized.
For successful electroweak baryogenesis to take place through the sphaleron process the universe needs to undergo a strong first order cosmological phase transition. While it does not occur in the Standard Model it becomes possible in the…
A summary of the electroweak results at HERA is presented.
In this proceedings contribution we discuss the fate of the electroweak and the quantum chromodynamics phase transitions relevant for the early stage of the universe at non-zero temperature. These phase transitions are related to the Higgs…
If stable electroweak strings are copiously produced during the electroweak phase transition, they may contribute significantly to the presently observed baryon to entropy ratio of the Universe. This analysis establishes the feasibility of…
We study the dynamics of electroweak phase transition in a simple extension of the Standard Model where the Higgs sector is extended by adding an $SU(2)_L$-triplet with hypercharge Y=2. By making random scans over the parameters of the…
Talk presented at the NATO Advanced Workshop on Electroweak Physics and the Early Universe: Sintra, Portugal, 1994. I summarize work done with Larry Yaffe on applying $\epsilon$ expansion techniques to the electroweak phase transition.
This article presents a phenomenological dynamic phase transition theory for ferromagnetism, leading to a precise description of the dynamic transitions, and to a physical predication on the spontaneous magnetization. The analysis also…

Developments in precision electroweak physics in the two years since the symposium are briefly summarized.
In this paper I review several aspects of the use of effective lagrangians in (mainly) electroweak physics. The conditions under which this approach is reliable and useful, as well as the limitations of the formalism are detailed. Various…
Baryogenesis at the electroweak phase transition is discussed within the framework of the supersymmetric standard model. Implications of baryon asymmetry for the electric dipole moment of the neutron are also studied.
Phase transitions associated with nearly conformal dynamics are known to lead to significant supercooling. A notorious example is the phase transition in Randall-Sundrum models or their CFT duals. In fact, it was found that the phase…
First order phase transitions are described in terms of the microcanonical and canonical ensemble, with special attention to finite size effects. Difficulties in interpreting a "caloric curve" are discussed. A robust parameter indicating…
We study numerically the real-time history of the cosmological electroweak phase transition, as it may take place in the Standard Model or in MSSM for m_H < m_W according to recent lattice results. We follow the nucleated bubbles from the…
