Presented By: Leinweber Center for Theoretical Physics
HET Seminar | Cosmic Colliders: High Energy Physics with First Order Phase Transitions
Bibhushan Shakya (DESY)
Vacuum decay through runaway first order phase transitions (FOPTs) presents a unique opportunity for particle physics and cosmology: collisions of vacuum bubbles can act as cosmic scale high energy colliders close to the Planck scale, providing access to high energy physics far beyond any temperature or energy scale ever reached in the history of our Universe. This talk will cover recent developments and challenges in the physics for understanding such frameworks, as well as applications to solve some of the fundamental problems in particle physics: the production of dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe.
