چکیده
Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis is an attempt to explain the cosmological baryon asymmetry using only a minimal extension of the Standard Model. The relevant processes take place out of thermal equilibrium and are non-perturbative, and so must be studied using full, real-time lattice simulations. We present new results on the dependence on CP-violation and the Higgs-toW mass ratio. c Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence.

متن کاملCold Electroweak Baryogenesis
We present arguments that the CKM CP-violation in the standard model may be sufficient for the generation of the baryon asymmetry, if the electroweak transition in the early universe was of the cold, tachyonic, type after electroweak-scale inflation. A model implementing this is described which complies with the CMB constraints and which is falsifiable with the LHC. Numerical simulations of the...
متن کاملنقض CP و گذار فاز الکتروضعیف در مدل دو هیگزی
In this paper, an analytic treatment of electroweak phase transition is proposed within the two-Higgs doublet model. This phase transition occurs in one stage and is strongly first order. Therefore, it can be applied to the electroweak baryogenesis scenario, whereas the standard model cannot provide this condition considering the experimental data. Also, we study CP violation which is one of th...
متن کاملThe Electroweak Phase Transition: a Status Report *
The possibility that the observed cosmological baryon density might be a consequence of non-perturbative dynamics at the electroweak phase transition is one of the most exciting topics at the interface of particle physics and cosmology. However, determining the viability of electroweak baryogenesis in (minimal extensions of) the standard model requires knowledge of the equilibrium behavior of t...
متن کاملChern-Simons and winding number in a tachyonic electroweak transition
We investigate the development of winding number and Chern-Simons number in a tachyonic transition in the SU(2) Higgs model, motivated by the scenario of cold electroweak baryogenesis. We find that localized configurations with approximately halfinteger winding number, dubbed half-knots, play an important role in this process. When the Chern-Simons number adjusts locally to the winding number, ...
