Axial Currents from CKM Matrix CP Violation
T. Konstandin
The first principle derivation of kinetic transport equations suggests that a CP-violating mass term during the electroweak phase transition can induce axial vector currents. Since…
Varying Couplings From Orbifold GUTs
Filipe Paccetti Correia, Michael G. Schmidt, Zurab Tavartkiladze
We discuss the variation of gauge couplings in time in the framework of orbifold constructions, due to a change of the extra compact dimension's size. Models with gauge coupling un…
Quantum Boltzmann equations for electroweak baryogenesis including gauge fields
Kimmo Kainulainen, Tomislav Prokopec, Michael G. Schmidt +1
We review and extend to include the gauge fields our derivation of the semiclassical limit of the collisionless quantum transport equations for the fermions in presence of a CP-vio…
The Electroweak Phase Transition - Standard and ``Beyond''
Michael G. Schmidt
We first review why a strongly first-order phase transition needed for baryogenesis is excluded in the electroweak standard model. We also comment on some intriguing effects in the…
Perturbative Contributions to the Electroweak Interface Tension
J. Kripfganz, A. Laser, M. G. Schmidt
The main perturbative contribution to the free energy of an electroweak interface is due to the effective potential and the tree level kinetic term. The derivative corrections are…
