Derivative expansion and gauge independence of the false vacuum decay rate in various gauges
D. Metaxas
In theories with radiative symmetry breaking, the calculation of the false vacuum decay rate requires the inclusion of higher-order terms in the derivative expansion of the effecti…

Non-topological solitons as nucleation sites for cosmological phase transitions
D. Metaxas
I consider quantum field theories that admit charged non-topological solitons of the Q-ball type, and use the fact that in a first-order cosmological phase transition, below the cr…
