The electroweak phase structure and baryon number violation for Large Higgs Mass
نویسنده
چکیده
The electroweak phase structure and baryon number violation for large Higgs mass. The classical transitions between topologically distinct vacua in a SU (2)–Higgs model, using a Higgs field of mass approximately 120 GeV, is examined to probe the crossover region between the symmetric and broken phase. For the volumes used, this crossover is approximately 10 GeV wide.

Sphaleron rate in the symmetric electroweak phase
Recently Bödeker has presented an effective infrared theory for the dynamics of Yang-Mills theory, suitable for studying the rate of baryon number violation in the early universe. We extend his theory to include Higgs fields, and study how much the Higgs affects the baryon number violation rate in the symmetric phase, at the phase coexistence temperature of a first order electroweak phase trans...
متن کاملEffective potential and first-order phase transitions: Beyond leading order.
Scenarios for electroweak baryogenesis require an understanding of the effective potential at finite temperature near a first-order electroweak phase transition. Working in Landau gauge, we present a calculation of the dominant two-loop corrections to the ring-improved one-loop potential in the formal limit g 4 ≪ λ ≪ g 2 , where λ is the Higgs self-coupling and g is the electroweak coupling. Th...

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 usual requirement v(Tc)/Tc >∼ 1 for baryogenesis can be satisfied in a range of the parameters of the model, consistent with present experimental bounds. Wor...
متن کاملImplications of a Light Stop for the Spontanous CP Breaking at Finite Temperature in a Nonminimal Supersymmetric Model
We study the implications of a light stop for the spontaneous CP breaking at finite temperature in the Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with a gauge singlet. Assuming CP conservation at zero temperature, we show that the presence of a large mixing between the leftand the right-handed stops can trigger easily the spontaneous breaking of CP inside the bubbles nucleated du...
متن کاملElectroweak Baryogenesis with dimension-6 Higgs interactions
We present the computation of the baryon asymmetry in the SM amplified by dimension-6 Higgs interactions using the WKB approximation. Analyzing the one-loop potential it turns out that the phase transition is strongly first order in a wide range of the parameters. It is ensured not to wash out the net baryon number gained previously even for Higgs masses up to at least 170 GeV. In addition dime...
