摘要:It is generally believed that some fundamental symmetries are expected to break in the early Universe. The accompanying phase transitions may well have been crucial for the evolution of the Universe. First order electroweak phase transitions are particularly interesting as they could generate detectable gravitational waves and/or trigger electroweak baryogenesis to generate the observed matter anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe. In this talk, I will introduce a C++ software package called PhaseTracer for mapping out cosmological phases, and potential transitions between them, for Standard Model extensions with any number of scalar fields.
