Phase Transitions in the Early and Present Universe [PDF]
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2006 ▪ Abstract The evolution of the universe is the ultimate laboratory for studying fundamental physics across energy scales that span approximately 25 orders of magnitude. The standard models of cosmology and particle physics provide the basic understanding of the early and present universe and predict a series of phase transitions that occurred in ...

Universal early warning signals of phase transitions in climate systems
Journal of the Royal Society Interface, 2023 The potential for complex systems to exhibit tipping points in which an equilibrium state undergoes a sudden and often irreversible shift is well established, but prediction of these events using standard forecast modelling techniques is quite difficult. This has led to the development of an alternative suite of methods that seek to identify signatures

Bubble nucleation and quantum initial conditions in classical statistical simulations
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 Classical-statistical lattice simulations provide a useful approximation to out-of-equilibrium quantum field theory, but only for systems exhibiting large occupation numbers, and only for phenomena that are not intrinsically quantum mechanical in nature.

Large primordial fluctuations in gravitational waves from phase transitions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 It is well-known that first-order phase transitions in the early universe can be a powerful source of observable stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds.

Precision early universe cosmology from stochastic gravitational waves
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 The causal tail of stochastic gravitational waves can be used to probe the energy density in free streaming relativistic species as well as measure g * (T) and beta functions β(T) as a function of temperature.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 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 ...

The supercooling window at weak and strong coupling
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 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 ...
