Abstract:
In the upcoming decades, gravitational waves will be an important tool in probing the early universe and high energy physics. Ranging from the CMB B-mode at low frequencies to ground-based and space-borne interferometers at high frequencies such as LISA, Taiji, TianQin, and DECIGO, a number of observation plans have been proposed, and they are expected to provide significant insights into physics beyond the Standard Model.
In this seminar, I mainly focus on cosmological first-order phase transitions and explain the contribution I have made to the field from the aspects of refinement of theoretical predictions and synergy with collider experiments. The potential for gravitational waves to reveal other new physics such as new particle species, inflaton decay, spectral deformation, as well as future prospects of the field will also be discussed.
