Standard Model Higgs boson mass from inflation

چکیده
We analyse one-loop radiative corrections to the inflationary potential in the theory, where inflation is driven by the Standard Model Higgs field. We show that inflation is possible provided the Higgs mass mH lies in the interval mmin < mH < mmax, where mmin = [136.7 + (mt − 171.2) × 1.95] GeV, mmax = [184.5 + (mt − 171.2) × 0.5] GeV and mt is the mass of the top quark. Moreover, the predictions of the spectral index of scalar fluctuations and of the tensor-to-scalar ratio practically do not depend on the Higgs mass within the admitted region and are equal to ns = 0.97 and r = 0.0034 correspondingly.

Singlet scalar dark matter effects on Higgs boson driven inflation
A minimal candidate for dark matter is provided by a stable standard model singlet hermitian scalar field. The quantum mechanical effects of this singlet are explored in a model where the standard model Higgs boson has a large non-minimal coupling to the Ricci scalar and plays the role of the inflaton. Imposition of the slow roll inflation cosmological constraints restricts the allowed values o...
متن کاملDecoupling of Higgs boson from the inflationary stage of Universe evolution
The constraint on the mass of Higgs field in the Standard Model at the minimal interaction with the gravity is derived in the form of bottom limit mH > 150 GeV by the strict requirement of decoupling the Higgs boson from the inflation of early Universe: the inflation produced by the Higgs scalar could crucially destroy visible properties of large scale structure of Universe, while the large mas...

This is a strong indication that unitarity is restored order...
متن کاملHiggs inflation at the critical point
Higgs inflation can occur if the Standard Model (SM) is a self-consistent effective field theory up to inflationary scale. This leads to a lower bound on the Higgs boson mass, Mh ≥ Mcrit. If Mh is more than a few hundreds of MeV above the critical value, the Higgs inflation predicts the universal values of inflationary indexes, r ' 0.003 and ns ' 0.97, independently on the Standard Model parame...

We consider a quantum corrected inflation scenario driven by a generic GUT or Standard Model type particle model whose scalar field playing the role of an inflaton has a strong non-minimal coupling to gravity. We show that currently widely accepted bounds on the Higgs mass falsify the suggestion of the paper arXiv:0710.3755 (where the role of radiative corrections was underestimated) that the S...
