The Sphaleron Rate at the Electroweak Crossover
Michela D'Onofrio, Kari Rummukainen, Anders Tranberg
The baryon number is violated in the Standard Model by non-perturbative sphaleron transitions. At temperatures above the electroweak scale, the rate of the sphaleron transitions is…
Simulations of Cold Electroweak Baryogenesis
Anders Tranberg, Jan Smit
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…
Classical issues in electroweak baryogenesis
Jan Smit, Anders Tranberg
In one scenario of baryogenesis, the matter-antimatter asymmetry was generated in the early universe during a cold electroweak transition. We model this transition by changing the…
Particle distributions in electroweak tachyonic preheating
Jon-Ivar Skullerud, Jan Smit, Anders Tranberg
We consider the out-of-equilibrium (quasi-) particle number distributions of the Higgs and W-fields during electroweak tachyonic preheating. We model this process by a fast quench,…
How to calculate the bubble nucleation rate in first order transitions non-perturbatively
Guy D. Moore, Kari Rummukainen, Anders Tranberg
We present a new method for calculating the bubble nucleation rate in first order phase transitions non-perturbatively on the lattice. The method takes into account all fluctuation…
