    Determining the thermal history of electroweak symmetry breaking is a forefront challenge for particle physics and cosmology. The occurrence of a first order electroweak phase transition (EWPT) would have profound implications for explaining the origin of the cosmic baryon asymmetry and generation of primordial gravitational radiation. I discuss recent theoretical developments in assessing the...

    The discovery of the Higgs boson marked the beginning of a new era in HEP. Precision measurement of the Higgs boson properties and exploring new physics beyond the Standard Model using Higgs as a tool become a natural next step beyond the LHC and HL-LHC.

    Will talk about cosmic phase transition and nano-hertz gravitational waves is given. Two examples of new physics models are illustrated, which respectively predict a supercool first-order electroweak phase transition and a first-order phase transition in the dark sector at MeV scale. Both models are shown to be able to explain the reported evidences of nano-hertz gravitational waves.

    We explore the fermion oscillation in a degenerate environment. The direct consequence is introducing a Pauli blocking factor 1−fi, where fi is the phase space distribution function, for each intermediate mass eigenstate during propagation. It is then much easier for a state with larger existing fraction or density to oscillate into other states with less degeneracy while the reversed process...

    Anomalous transport phenomena, such as the chiral magnetic effect, arise from the chiral anomaly in gauge theories and have recently gained attention in hadron and condensed matter physics. These effects can also lead to intriguing phenomena in the early Universe, where chirality is well-conserved at temperatures above 100 TeV. One example is the chiral plasma instability, in which helical...

    Abstract: A variety of supergravity and string-based models feature hidden sectors with U(1) gauge groups, playing significant roles in particle physics and cosmology. As constraints on dark matter tighten, exploration into these hidden sectors intensifies. These hidden sectors can engage in feeble interactions with the visible sector and vary between feeble and normal strength with each...

    We present a consistent derivation of the complete Wess-Zumino-Witten interactions of axions, including the counter-term necessary to guarantee the gauge invariance of the Standard Model. By treating the derivative of the axion field as a background gauge field and incorporating auxiliary chiral rotation phases, we ensure consistency in the axion-interaction Lagrangian. This approach allows us...

    Several pulsar timing array collaborations recently reported evidence of a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) at nHz frequencies. While the SGWB could originate from the merger of supermassive black holes, it could be a signature of new physics near the 100 MeV scale. Supercooled first-order phase transitions (FOPTs) that end at the 100 MeV scale are intriguing explanations,...

    We consider the intriguing possibility that the recently reported nano-Hz gravitational wave signal by Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments is sourced by a strong first-order phase transition from a nearly conformal dark sector. The phase transition has to be strongly supercooled to explain the signal amplitude, while the critical temperature has to be in the ${\cal O}(GeV)$ range, as...

    We study the vacuum structure of the gauge and Higgs fields and calculate the saddle-point sphaleron configuration in the Higgs Triplet Model (HTM). The coupled nonlinear equations of motion of the sphaleron are solved using the spectral method. We find the inclusion of the triplet scalar could in principle significantly change the sphaleron energy compared with the Standard Model (SM).
