Gravitational wave and collider implications of electroweak baryogenesis aided by non-standard cosmology

Journal Article Artymowski, Michal ; Lewicki, Marek ; Wells, James D. - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

Here, we consider various models realizing baryogenesis during the electroweak phase transition (EWBG). Our focus is their possible detection in future collider experiments and possible observation of gravitational waves emitted during the phase transition. We also discuss the possibility of a non-standard cosmological history which can facilitate EWBG. We show how acceptable parameter space can be extended due to such a modification and conclude that next generation precision experiments such as the ILC will be able to confirm or falsify many models realizing EWBG. We also show that, in general, collider searches are a more powerful probe than gravitational wavemore »« less

Gauge hierarchy from electroweak vacuum metastability

Journal Article Khoury, Justin ; Steingasser, Thomas - Physical Review D

We consider the possibility that the gauge hierarchy is a byproduct of the metastability of the electroweak vacuum, i.e., that whatever mechanism is responsible for the latter also sets the running Higgs mass to a value smaller than its natural value by many orders of magnitude. We find that the metastability of the electroweak vacuum, together with the requirement that such a nontrivial vacuum exists, requires the Higgs mass to be smaller than the instability scale by around 1 order of magnitude. While this bound is quite weak in the Standard Model (SM), as the instability scale is ~10¹¹ GeV, simple and well-motivated extensions of the SM significantly tighten the bound by lowering the instability scale. We first consider the effect of right-handed neutrinos in the vMSM with approximate B -more »« less

QCD sphalerons at high temperature and baryogenesis at the electroweak scale

Journal Article Mohapatra, R N ; Zhang, X - Physical Review, D (Particles Fields); (United States)

Effects of a QCD sphaleronlike transition on baryogenesis at the weak scale are examined. We explain how QCD sphaleronlike plus SU(2) sphaleron processes convert right-handed quark numbers into baryon number during phase transitions.

Supersonic electroweak baryogenesis: achieving baryogenesis for fast bubble walls

Journal Article Caprini, Chiara ; No, José M., E-mail: chiara.caprini@cea.fr, E-mail: jose-miguel.no@cea.fr - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Standard electroweak baryogenesis in the context of a first order phase transition is effective in generating the baryon asymmetry of the universe if the broken phase bubbles expand at subsonic speed, so that CP asymmetric currents can diffuse in front of the wall. Here we present a new mechanism for electroweak baryogenesis which operates for supersonic bubble walls. It relies on the formation of small bubbles of the symmetric phase behind the bubble wall, in the broken phase, due to the heating of the plasma as the wall passes by. We apply the mechanism to a model in which themore »« less

Fast electroweak symmetry breaking and cold electroweak baryogenesis

Journal Article Enqvist, Kari ; Stephens, Philip ; Taanila, Olli ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We construct a model for delayed electroweak symmetry breaking that takes place in a cold Universe with T << 100 GeV and which proceeds by a fast quench rather than by a conventional, slow, phase transition. This is achieved by coupling the Standard Model Higgs to an additional scalar field. We show that the quench transition can be made fast enough for successful Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis, while leaving known electroweak physics unchanged.
