    Probing the electroweak symmetry breaking history with gravitational waves

    We perform three dimensional lattice simulation of the electroweak symmetry breaking process through two-step vacuum-like phase transitions with one step being first-order. Our results show that: 1) when the e...

    Electroweak phase transition and gravitational waves in the type-II seesaw model

    The type-II seesaw model is a possible candidate for simultaneously explaining non-vanishing neutrino masses and the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe. In this work, we study in detail the pattern of p...

    Probing superheavy dark matter with gravitational waves

    We study the superheavy dark matter (DM) scenario in an extended B−L model, where one generation of right-handed neutrino νR is the DM candidate. If there is a new lighter sterile neutrino that co-annihilate with...

    Electroweak baryogenesis and gravitational waves in a composite Higgs model with high dimensional fermion representations

    We study electroweak baryogenesis in the SO(6)/SO(5) composite Higgs model with the third generation quarks being embedded in the 20 representation of SO(6). The scalar sector contains one Higgs doublet and one ...

    Electroweak phase transition with composite Higgs models: calculability, gravitational waves and collider searches

    We study the strong first order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT) with the SO(6)/SO(5) composite Higgs model, whose scalar sector contains one Higgs doublet and one real singlet. Six benchmark models are bui...

    Electroweak phase transition and Higgs phenomenology in the Georgi-Machacek model

    In this work, we perform the electroweak phase transition study with the Georgi-Machacek model. We investigate both the one-step and two-step strong first order electroweak phase transition (SFOEWPT). The SFOE...

    A new insight into the phase transition in the early Universe with two Higgs doublets

    We study the electroweak phase transition in the alignment limit of the CP-conserving two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) of Type I and Type II. The effective potential is evaluated at one-loop, where the thermal p...
