Topological String Defect Formation During the Chiral Phase Transition [PDF]

, 2001
We extend and generalize the seminal work of Brandenberger, Huang and Zhang on the formation of strings during chiral phase transitions(berger) and discuss the formation of abelian and non-abelian topological strings during such transitions in the early ...

Primordial Black Hole Formation during First-Order Phase Transitions [PDF]

, 1999
Primordial black holes (PBHs) may form in the early universe when pre-existing adiabatic density fluctuations enter into the cosmological horizon and recollapse. It has been suggested that PBH formation may be facilitated when fluctuations enter into the

Topological Defects and Cosmology [PDF]

, 1998
Many particle physics models of matter admit solutions corresponding to stable or long-lived topological defects. In the context of standard cosmology it is then unavoidable that such defects will form during phase transitions in the very early Universe.

Searching for heavy leptophilic Z′: from lepton colliders to gravitational waves

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study the phenomenology of leptophilic Z′ gauge bosons at the future high-energy e + e − and μ + μ − colliders, as well as at the gravitational wave observatories.

Relevant dilaton stabilization

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We propose a simple modification of the Goldberger-Wise mechanism for stabilizing the scale of spontaneously broken conformal theories. The source of explicit conformal symmetry breaking is a relevant operator with a small coefficient, as opposed to the ...

Quark-Gluon Plasma in the Early Universe [PDF]

, 2001
A QCD phase transition in the early universe could have left inhomogeneities in the baryon to photon ratio and in isospin that might have affected nucleosynthesis later on.

Axionic domain walls at Pulsar Timing Arrays: QCD bias and particle friction

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
The recent results from the Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) collaborations show the first evidence for the detection of a stochastic background of gravitational waves at the nHz frequencies.

The scalar singlet extension of the Standard Model: gravitational waves versus baryogenesis

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study the possible gravitational wave signal and the viability of baryogenesis arising from the electroweak phase transition in an extension of the Standard Model (SM) by a scalar singlet field without a ℤ2 symmetry.

Gravitational Waves from Phase Transitions at the Electroweak Scale and Beyond [PDF]

, 2006
If there was a first order phase transition in the early universe, there should be an associated stochastic background of gravitational waves. In this paper, we point out that the characteristic frequency of the spectrum due to phase transitions which ...
