We consider interactions of fermions with the domain wall bubbles produced during a first order phase transition. A new exact solution of the Dirac equations is obtained for a wall profile incorporating a position dependent phase factor.…
Topological defects can act as local impurities that seed cosmological phase transitions. In this paper we study the case of domain walls, and how they can affect the electroweak phase transition in the Standard Model extended with a…
Standard theories of electroweak interactions are based on the concept of a gauge symmetry broken by the Higgs mechanism. If they are placed in an environment with a sufficiently high temperature, the symmetry gets restored. It turns out…
We study the nature of domain walls in an ordered phase in the phase-competing region of two Ising-type order parameters. Considering a two-component $\phi^4$ theory, we show that the domain wall of the ground-state (primary) order…
We investigate the motion of fermions in the presence of an electro\-weak phase transition bubble wall. We derive and solve the Dirac equation for such fer\-mions, and compute the transmission and reflection coefficients for fermions…
We consider interactions of fermions with the domain wall bubbles produced during the first order phase transitions. New exact solution of Dirac equations and reflection coefficient are obtained.
We study properties of domain walls in the symmetron model, in which the scalar gravitational degree of freedom decouples from matter in regions of high density, and exhibits a spontaneously broken $Z_2$ symmetry at low densities. The…
We investigate domain walls between topologically ordered phases in two spatial dimensions and present a simple but general framework from which their degrees of freedom can be understood. The approach we present exploits the results on…
We study the dynamics of domain walls in a double-field model in which the U(1) symmetry is broken both spontaneously and explicitly. The global U(1) symmetry of the system is restored when the symmetry breaking parameter $\epsilon$ is set…
Massless Dirac particles are characterized by an effective pseudospin-momentum locking, which is the origin of the peculiar scattering properties of Dirac particles through potential barriers. This pseudospin-momentum locking also governs…
In the standard model with electroweak symmetry breaking through the Higgs mechanism, electroweak gauge-boson scattering amplitudes are large if the Higgs boson is heavy, and electroweak gauge interactions become strong. In theories with…
Bilayer graphene subjected to perpendicular magnetic and electric fields displays a subtle competition between different symmetry broken phases, resulting from an interplay between the internal spin and valley degrees of freedom. The…
We study QCD with massless quarks on $\mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$ under symmetry-twisted boundary conditions with small compactification radius, i.e. at high temperatures. Under suitable boundary conditions, the theory acquires a part of the…
We consider electroweak baryogenesis mediated by embedded domain walls. Embedded domain walls originating from a symmetry breaking phase transition are stabilized by thermal plasma effects, so that the electroweak symmetry is unbroken in…
Transitions between different topologically ordered phases have been studied by artificially creating boundaries between these gapped phases and thus studying their effects relating to condensation and tunneling of particles from one phase…
We quantise from first principles field theories living on the background of a bubble wall in the planar limit with particular focus on the case of spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry. Using these tools, we compute the average momentum…
We consider here the interaction of scalar bosons with a topological domain wall. Not only is there a continuum of scattering states, but there is also an interesting "quasi-discretuum" of positive energy bosonic bound states, describing…
We calculate the energy spectrum of quasiparticles trapped by a domain wall separating different time reversal symmetry-breaking ground states in a hexagonal superconductor, such as UPt$_3$. The bound state energy is found to be strongly…
In this Letter we study the interactions of the dissipative domain walls with dielectric particles. It is shown that particles can be steadily trapped by the moving domain walls. The influence of the ratchet effect on particle trapping is…
We show that a system of a domain wall coupled to a scalar field has static negative energy density at certain distances from the domain wall. This system provides a simple, explicit example of violation of the averaged weak energy…
