Spontaneous symmetry breaking in the late Universe and glimpses of the early Universe phase transitions à la baryogenesis [PDF]
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is the foundation of electroweak unification and serves as an integral part of the model building beyond the standard model of particle physics and it also finds interesting applications in the late Universe.

Testing the early universe with anisotropies of the gravitational wave background [PDF]
In this work we analyse in detail the possibility of using small and intermediate-scale gravitational wave anisotropies to constrain the inflationary particle content.

In this work, we assess the sensitivity reach of pulsar timing array (PTA) measurements to probe pointlike primordial black holes (PBHs), with an extended mass distribution, which originate from collapsed Fermi balls that are formed through the ...

Large primordial fluctuations in gravitational waves from phase transitions
It is well-known that first-order phase transitions in the early universe can be a powerful source of observable stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds.

The D(p,γ)3He cross section at low energies affects the primordial deuterium abundance, that in turn depends on fundamental cosmological parameters such as the baryon density and the amount of relativistic particles permeating the early universe.

The supercooling window at weak and strong coupling
Supercooled first order phase transitions are typical of theories where conformal symmetry is predominantly spontaneously broken. In these theories the fate of the flat scalar direction is highly sensitive to the size and the scaling dimension of the ...

The early universe is ACT-ing warm [PDF]
The recently released data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) confirms that the primordial scalar spectrum is extremely flat. This, together with current upper bounds on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, implies that the simplest models of inflation ...

Gravitational waves from the sound shell model: direct and inverse phase transitions in the early Universe [PDF]
Cosmological first order phase transitions are a frequent phenomenon in particle physics beyond the Standard Model, and the corresponding gravitational wave signal offers a key probe of new physics in the early Universe.

ELENA: a software for fast and precise computation of first order phase transitions and gravitational waves production in particle physics models [PDF]
We present ELENA (EvaLuator of tunnElliNg Actions), an open-source Python package designed to compute the full evolution of first-order phase transitions in the early Universe generated by particle physics models, taking into account several refinements ...
