Model-independent energy budget for LISA
Felix Giese, Thomas Konstandin, Kai Schmitz +1
We provide an easy method to obtain the kinetic energy fraction in gravitational waves, generated during a cosmological first-order phase transition, as a function of only the wall…

Model-independent energy budget of cosmological first-order phase transitions
Felix Giese, Thomas Konstandin, Jorinde van de Vis
We study the energy budget of a first-order cosmological phase transition, which is an important factor in the prediction of the resulting gravitational wave spectrum. Formerly, th…

Vacuum stability of Froggatt-Nielsen models
Felix Giese, Thomas Konstandin
We discuss vacuum stability in Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) models. One concern in FN models is that for large flavon VEVs the running of the quartic Higgs coupling is enhanced what might…
