Is There a Hot Electroweak Phase Transition atmH≳mW?
Open accessAbstract
We provide nonperturbative evidence for the fact that there is no hot first or second order electroweak phase transition at large Higgs masses, ${m}_{H}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}95$, 120, and 180 GeV. This means that the line of first order phase transitions separating the symmetric and broken phases at small ${m}_{H}$ has an end point ${m}_{H,c}$. In the minimal standard electroweak theory $70<{m}_{H,c}<95\mathrm{GeV}$ and most likely ${m}_{H,c}\ensuremath{\approx}80\mathrm{GeV}$. If the electroweak theory is weakly coupled and the Higgs boson is found to be heavier than the critical value (which depends on the theory in question), cosmological remnants from the electroweak epoch are improbable.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
